In a bold move, the FBI is offering a $5,000 reward for any information leading to the suspect’s arrest and conviction.
The robbery occurred on November 13 at approximately 10:30 PM near Rampart Blvd. The video, which the LVMPD shared on social media, captures the suspect moments after the heist.

This brazen act has raised significant concerns about security in Las Vegas establishments, and authorities are intensifying their efforts to identify the suspect. Eyewitness reports indicate that the suspect fled the scene on a bicycle, showcasing the audacity of the crime. The incident has left both casino staff and patrons shaken, as surveillance footage revealed a security guard retreating upon spotting the weapon.
The LVMPD is calling on the public for assistance in this ongoing investigation. Individuals with any information are urged to contact the LVMPD Robbery Section at 702-828-3591, or email [email protected].
