    Armed Robbery of Las Vegas Hilton Sportsbook

    Las Vegas Now | Major Heist at Las Vegas Hilton Casino

    Major Heist at Las Vegas Hilton Casino

    LAS VEGAS, Nev. -- A major heist took place at a Las Vegas casino early this morning. Sources say the suspects may have got away with hundreds of thousands of dollars.

    Metro police confirm that two suspects robbed the sports book just after 6 a.m. They are still at large. Police also believe a third person may have been involved as a getaway driver.

    Lt. Clint Nichols tells Eyewitness News that the suspects used handguns and the whole ordeal was well planned and took less than one minute.

    "It's going to be a pretty substantial amount of money to spend, so you should notice as far as someone shows up with a brand new car. We're asking if anybody knows to give us a call," said Lt. Clint Nicols.

    Anyone with information is asked to call Crimestoppers at 385-5555.
    That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about a hundred and nine, ninety five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that?

    "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier
    and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the
    service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the
    love and thanks of man and woman."

    -- Thomas Paine (The American Crisis, No. 1, 19 December 1776)

    Me too.

    Last night we were watching HBO and my dog started freaking out, so I went to investigate. I just happened to be holding my Dragunov at the time, so I was armed. I installed a new stock on Saturday night.

    Turns out it was the wind blowing some stuff around. There's been 6 robberies in the past two months in my neighborhood, so everybody's on high alert.

    The Hilton is off the main drag, nice place though they have the "Star Trek" exhibit there.
