Another robbery in a Las Vegas casino bathroom and this time the victim didn’t make it out alive.
Police have not released the name of the victim, who was shot in the bathroom of the Opera House Casino in North Las Vegas just before 11:30 pm Friday.
The victim later died after being taken too the University Medical Center’s trauma unit.
Police arrested Stefon Clark, 21, who they say was allegedly robbing people in the bathroom that evening.
Just last week, former World Series of Poker finalist Scott Montgomery, reported that he had been robbed in the bathroom of the famed Bellagio Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.
“Got mugged today at Bellagio. Black guy pulled a knife on me in the restroom. I gave him the $2K in my wallet and he left.”
Montgomery was particularly miffed at the hotel’s security staff taking a laid back approach in the situation, no one even asking him to review security footage after taking 15 minutes to respond to his call for help. By then, the bandit was likely elsewhere on the Vegas strip.
It is unclear as to whether there is any connection between these robberies.
Montgomery is the boyfriend of 2007 World Series of Poker Europe winner Annette Obrestad.
