Unfortunately, that is what happened over the weekend when three individuals decided to target visitors of the <strong>Gold Strike Casino<\/strong> and the <strong>Horseshoe Casino<\/strong> in an attempt to steal from the patrons. <\/p>\n<p>The Tunica County Sheriff\u2019s Office is currently on the hunt for three men in connection with the armed robberies. Thankfully, no one was injured during the robberies and surveillance footage will help to catch those involved. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"details-of-the-robberies\">Details of the Robberies <\/h2>\n<p>According to police, then men went from the Gold Strike to the Horseshoe and in the process, <strong>robbed two different people armed with a weapon<\/strong>. It is unclear as to what type of weapon was involved but we do know that two different men were approached and threatened. Police have not said what was taken from the victims affected by the armed robbers. <\/p>\n<p>Security cameras of one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/online-casino-real-money\">real money casinos<\/a> was able to capture images of the three men believed to be connected to the crimes. The images were taken as the men were coming and going from the venue. The images are clear, so police are hoping this will help to catch the individuals quickly. <\/p>\n<div style=\"position:relative;height:0;padding-bottom:56.25%\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M6TxPShlawc?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0?ecver=2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;left:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Police are asking anyone that may <strong>have information on the case to contact the local crime stoppers group or the investigation division<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"be-aware-of-your-surroundings\">Be Aware of Your Surroundings<\/h2>\n<p>The incident has caused patrons of Tunica casinos to be more aware of their surroundings, which is a good idea in general. It is not uncommon for criminals to target patrons of casinos due to the amount of money moving through the venue. Visitors are often carrying large amounts of cash to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/games\/crash-gambling\">gamble<\/a> with or leave a venue after earning a big win with cash in hand. <\/p>\n<p>It is important for patrons of casinos to be watchful when leaving a casino, especially late at night. Try to visit a venue with friends or ask a security guard or casino employees to watch you as you leave the premises. <\/p>\n<p>Most casinos have some type of surveillance system so if a robbery were to take place, the footage could be used as in this case to catch those involved. But avoiding a robbery in the first place is a much better option! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Three men are wanted in connection with armed robbery near the Gold Strike and Horseshoe Casinos.
