No weapon was displayed, KLAS<\/em>, a local TV station, reported. Police were notified about the robbery at 12:06 am.<\/p>\n

The bandit was apprehended later on Monday morning.<\/p>\n

\n

The alleged robber was identified as James Booth, 37, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/em>.\u00a0He was charged with robbery with a deadly weapon. If convicted on the charge, he could face many years in prison.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Soon after his arrest, Booth was booked at the Clark County Detention Center, the Review-Journal<\/em> said. He was not listed in custody in the regional jail as of 7 p.m. on Monday, according to online records.<\/p>\n

It’s unknown if Booth was actually able to steal any cash from the casino cashier. It’s also unclear if this latest heist is somehow connected to the five other casino cage robberies which took place in Las Vegas or nearby since November.<\/p>\n

Prior Holdups<\/h2>\n

The second-most recent holdup occurred on Christmas Eve at Las Vegas\u2019s Rampart Casino<\/a>. The suspect was believed to be a solitary bandit. The Rampart Casino is located in the J.W. Marriott hotel.<\/p>\n

\n

Earlier in December, the cage at the Silverton Casino<\/a> in Las Vegas was robbed. The bandit arrived at the Silverton in a taxi, robbed the cage, and left in the same taxi, KLAS<\/em> said. Also in December, a man robbed a casino cage at Henderson, Nev.\u2019s Green Valley Ranch<\/a>. He demanded cash from a cashier at the cage. The suspect didn’t brandish a firearm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

He was described as a black male. After stealing the money, he drove off in a dark-colored Ford, police said.<\/p>\n

In November, a solitary suspect robbed a cashier\u2019s cage at Gold Coast Hotel and Casino<\/a>. Initial reports didn\u2019t reveal how much money was taken, but Vital Vegas <\/em>later reported the amount stolen was about $30K.<\/p>\n

The robber was described as a Black male. His height was estimated between 6 feet and 6-foot-2 tall. He was wearing a white mask and black clothing at the time of the holdup, KLAS<\/em> said.<\/p>\n

Also in November, a man robbed the Resorts World Las Vegas<\/a> casino. He then fled from the property in a taxi, KLAS <\/em>said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He apparently handed a note to a cashier demanding cash. It is unclear how much money he stole from the high-limit cashier\u2019s cage. No description of the man was given.<\/p>\n

Police Investigate Earlier Heists<\/h2>\n

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department continues to investigate these earlier robberies. It appears no suspects were charged in these prior heists.<\/p>\n

Each of the casinos that were robbed has a staff of security guards. They also have extensive surveillance cameras.<\/strong><\/p>\n

No one appears to have been injured in any of these robberies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
