The Bellagio is the most recent casino in Vegas to fall victim to a robbery. A daring heist, perpetrated by a lone gunman, ended with the robber running off with $1.5 million dollars in chips.<\/p>\n
Clad in biking gear, including a helmet with an opaque visor, the man walked inside the Bellagio and drew a fire arm at a craps table at approximately 3:50 in the morning. The helmet prevented his face from being identified.<\/p>\n
The man fled on his motorcycle, taking off with an enormous supply of chips that had been kept in the box on the craps table.<\/p>\n
Authorities suspect that he or she who commit this crime could also be responsible for the robbery of the Suncoast Hotel & Casino on Thursday morning, where $20,000 in cash was taken by a person wearing a motorcycle helmet.<\/p>\n
Surveillance cameras managed only to capture definitive images of the thief’s garb and dimensions. Standing between 5’10 and 6 feet tall, the white male is reported to weigh approximately 220 pounds.<\/p>\n
Bellagio officials feel that it will be “extremely difficult” for the burglar to cash in some of the higher value chips, particularly the $25,000 dollar chips.<\/p>\n
This marks the 10th casino robbery reported this year, which is one more than last year’s casino crimes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
