Las Vegas’s Rampart Casino Reportedly Robbed on Christmas Eve
Another cashier’s cage at a Las Vegas gaming property has been held up, according to local news reports. The latest heist reportedly was at Rampart Casino on Christmas Eve.
Details on the robbery were not immediately available. The amount of cash swiped was not revealed.
Nor was it known if this one was linked to five recent casino robberies in Las Vegas or nearby communities since November.
It appears Saturday’s theft was by a single bandit, KLAS, a local TVstation, and website Vital Vegas reported. No injuries were revealed.
The heist was Las Vegas’s fifth casino cage robbery in slightly more than six weeks.
The Rampart Casino is in the J.W. Marriott hotel, which is located on North Rampart Boulevard. It has over 1,445 slot, video poker, and keno machines. There are also 30 table games.
Prior Heists
Last Tuesday, the cage at the Silverton Casino was robbed, KLAS said.
The suspect rode up to the Silverton Casino in a taxi. The cage was robbed, and the bandit got into the same taxi and fled from the gaming property.
Silverton has some 1,100 slot machines and 26 table games.
Earlier this month on December 12, a man robbed a casino cage at Henderson, Nev.’s Green Valley Ranch. No arrests were made in that the case.
The suspect was described as a Black male. No weapon was displayed.
The suspect demanded cash from the cage employee. The money was turned over. Then the suspect fled in a dark-colored Ford.
Also, on November 16, a suspect robbed the Gold Coast Hotel and Casino. He also threatened to kill the cashier. Some $30,000 was stolen.
The suspect was described as a Black male, and was 6-foot to 6-foot-2 inches tall.
On November 9, a suspect robbed $6,000 from a Resorts World casino cage.
The suspect tossed a brown plastic sack onto the cage counter. A note was passed to the cashier.
It demanded the cashier to “Fill the bag or I will shoot you.”
The cashier complied and alerted a manager. The suspect, later identified as Zubaid Ibrahim Al Jarmi, 26, left the casino with the money and ran back toward the valet area. He jumped into the same cab he arrived in, according to police.
The cab took Al Jarmi to a bus stop near Rochelle Lane and Decatur Boulevard. Al Jarmi then drove back to the same casino in his own car. He spent some time hanging out at the crime scene. 실시간 바카라사이트
One Arrest in Two Months
After an investigation, on November 16 the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) arrested Al Jarmi on charges of robbery with a deadly weapon, burglary with a deadly weapon, and violation of probation.
His case is pending in local court.
Upon his arrest, Al Jarmi was on probation for a prior conviction for robbing a casino cage at the Venetian on Jan. 1, 2020. He presented a similar note with similar handwriting at that theft, KTNV, a local TV station, reported.
New Hampshire Casino Wins Business of the Year Award
Brook, the largest charitable casino in the U.S. located minutes from the New Hampshire-Massachusetts border, was named "Business of the Year" by the Hampton Regional Chamber of Commerce last week.
The Board of Directors of the Chamber of Commerce honored The Brook at an annual awards dinner held Thursday, Jan. 26, at the Blue Ocean Event Center in Salisbury, Massachusetts, together with Chamber of Commerce President John Nihan. CEO Andre Carrier accepted the award on behalf of The Brook and its more than 200 employee owners.
"From the beginning, one of our goals has been to show this community that people and interests can not only coexist, they can prosper, and we're grateful to the Chamber of Commerce for acknowledging that," said Carrier, who is also CEO of parent company Eureka Casino Resort in Nevada, the only 100% employee hospitality company owned by more than 700 team members in the U.S.
As well as creating hundreds of new jobs since completing millions of dollars in refresh and renovation on the 75-acre site formerly known as Seabrook Park, The Brook, which uses a charitable casino model, has donated more than $8 million to local organizations in circulation over the past four years.
"Brook shows an overall knowledge of how important employees are because they are employee-owned," said Nihan. "We encourage not only businessmen, but also all employees of the business to be members of the Chamber of Commerce… Brooke gives back. They give back thousands, thousands of dollars to coastal communities."
Carrier said, "When my business partner (Gregory Lee) and I took this opportunity in New Hampshire, it was because it was a charity casino in the state we grew up in and loved.
"Since then, we've spent tens of millions of dollars on what's become a passion project. This year, we're already on pace to raise more than $500,000 a month for essential charities. And as a 100% employee-owned company, we've been able to pay higher than the market, deliver lower-cost benefits and fully funded retirement plans."
Other local business awards winners for the ceremony were Cinnamon Rainbow Surf Company (belief in the future), North Hampton Business Association (Presidential Award) and Lisa Parker (Humanitarian Award), a volunteer at st Vincent de Paul Community Kitchen. 바카라사이트 추천

Oneida Indian Nation Announces Largest Expansion Of Turningstone Resort Casino In 20 Years
The Oneida Indian Nation today announced the largest expansion and financial reinvestment plan at Turningstone Resort Casino over the past 20 years. The multi-year, large-scale project will almost double the resort's existing convention and conference space. To support the increase in convention guests, the expansion will include about 250 rooms in Turningstone, which is roughly the same size as a tower hotel, as well as new dining options, outdoor space, and additional amenities. These additions will help attract even more local and national events across the country, further increasing tourism to the area.
Turning Stone's expansion project will result in millions of dollars spent alongside local businesses and vendors. The Oneida Indian Nation has named Syracuse-based Hayner Hoyt as its general contractor and will also leverage the Central New York trade union to create hundreds of local construction jobs. The expansion will also support the continued growth of the Oneida Indian Nation's workforce, along with hundreds of new permanent jobs once completed. Over the past three decades, the Oneida Indian Nation has invested more than $1 billion in Central New York.
The multi-year expansion plan is already underway, and a breakthrough expansion is expected in 2023.
"As we embark on our largest reinvestment in 20 years, we start a new chapter for our businesses and ensure that we remain one of the premier events and tourism destinations in New York for decades to come," said Ray Halbritter, Oneida India Nation CEO and Oneida Nation Enterprises CEO. "Today we are experiencing record demand to host conferences and other events at Turning Stone, which far exceeds our current hotels and convention facilities. This extensive, multi-year expansion project will help us meet this growing demand and even greater demand in the future. Our 30-year track record has demonstrated that investments like this are vital to sustaining the growth and success of our businesses and our entire region."
The Oneida India Nation selected architecture and design company Gensler as its development partner for this expansion. Gensler has 52 locations worldwide, serving more than 3,500 customers in almost every industry. Gensler has been the lead designer and architect of other major destinations, including Las Vegas' City Center, Washington's Gaylord National Hotel and Convention Center, and Walt Disney World's Swan Reserve, among many major resorts and convention centers around the world.
"Jensler is excited to partner with Oneida Indian Nation on the expansion of the Turning Stone Resort Casino," said Lester U.N., Jensler's design director. "This expansion will bring some game-changing features to this incredible property, and we are thrilled to add it to our portfolio of global hospitality and convention projects."
"As one of the largest employers and major contributors to the investment that brings millions of visitors to the heart of New York every year, the Oneida Indian Nation has been a decisive driver for the economic development of Oneida County," said Anthony Picente of Oneida County. "This latest investment in the Turning Stone Resort Casino, the largest in 20 years, expands this partnership and continues our joint goal of revitalizing Oneida County with the Nexus Center. We know that when the Oneida Indian Nation does well, the Oneida County will do well, and the expansion of Turning Stone will help grow this success while increasing tourism, new jobs, and more."
"The partnership between the Oneida Indian country and the town of Verona has been instrumental in our mutual growth and success," said Verona Village Supervisor Scott Musakio. "Recently, the partnership has helped provide water and sewer infrastructure for newly hired housing in the Oneida Indian country, an innovative approach to increasing affordable housing and increasing jobs within our communities. The expansion of Turning Stone will continue to invest significantly in our local economy and further establish Verona as a global destination for tourism, conventions, and more."
"At a time when many businesses are postponing or canceling investments, the Oneida Indian country is once again moving forward with the massive expansion of Turning Stone, which will create well-paying jobs for hundreds of its members and support the sustainable growth of our region," said Greg Lancet, president of Central/North Building Trading. "Our motto has always been that if the Oneida Indian country can dream of it, we can create it. We are honored to play a role in making these dreams a reality once again." 파워볼사이트
"Today's announcement by the Oneida Indian Country is further evidence of the region's tourism economic growth and economic recovery from the global pandemic. Mohawk Valley EDGE welcomes the upcoming projects by the Oneida Indian Country and how this investment is fueling the economic revival in the region," said Stephen DiMeo, Chairman of the Mohawk Valley EDGE. "We see this large-scale development as a positive for local businesses looking for conference and convention venues, as well as businesses looking for world-class recreational activities. We are delighted to call the Oneida Indian Country our partner and neighbor to help our region generate revenue, recreation, and overall community impact in the years ahead."
"Over the past 30 years, the Oneida Indian Nation has been an exemplary partner, focused on boosting tourism for the region, and has been committed to investing in the workforce and surrounding communities," said Center State CEO Rob Simpson. "The historic expansion of Turning Stone's convention space and hotel rooms continues to make this exceptional commitment, and will attract even more businesses and tourists from across the country to upstate New York."
