This individual has been observed wearing a black mask, a hooded sweatshirt, and black gloves, police said. He\u2019s also been seen driving two vehicles, both of them stolen. One is a dark gray Chevrolet Cruze with Nevada license plate 039V61. The other is a silver Mazda 6 with Nevada plate 902M64.<\/p>\n

Since November 2022, the casino cages at four off-Strip casinos have been robbed without any subsequent arrests: the Gold Coast on November 16,<\/a> the Green Valley Ranch on December 12,<\/a> the Silverton on December 20,<\/a> and the Rampart on December 24.<\/a><\/p>\n

Welcome to our Valued Robbers!<\/b><\/h2>\n

The cage is a casino\u2019s bank. Cashiers who handle money and casino chips there are trained not to resist demands made by criminals. So are the security guards present at every casino. According to experts,<\/a> ensuring that a gun is never fired inside a casino is a much higher priority than preventing a robbery.<\/p>\n

Rather than the threat of armed response, the preferred deterrent is an extensive series of surveillance cameras that record everything inside the casino from dozens of angles.<\/p>\n

Also, criminals know that every skin cell and hair shed onto every surface can be analyzed for DNA evidence.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the way things should <\/em>work. However, it\u2019s difficult to argue that the images shown in the following compilation of security footage \u2013 which detectives have asked all Las Vegas residents and future tourists to view \u2013 do a great job of identifying their suspect.<\/p>\n
