An armed man entered the Bellagio casino in Las Vegas today and walked off with 1.5 million dollars worth of chips. Despite Las Vegas casino's being renowned for their security, the robbery that took place on Tuesday, December 14th, was relatively simple. The armed gunman rode up on his motorcycle and parked it at the entrance to the casino. He then walked into the casino, approached a craps table and revealed his gun demanding the chips. He then walked out of the casino and rode of on his motorcycle. The gunmen kept his helmet on the entire time and so can't be identified.
The robbery may not be the gunman's first, a similar robbery occurred on December 9th at the Suncoast casino. In that incident the gunman only got away with 20,000 dollars.
