An "America's Most Wanted" suspect accused of raping and "pimping" two New Jersey teenagers was arrested at a Strip casino Thursday.

Las Vegas police said Jason L. Brown, 31, was wanted for allegedly violently assaulting two young women in Atlantic City and forcing them into prostitution.

Police arrested Brown playing poker about 3 a.m. Thursday at Aria. According to the Fox television show, Brown was a compulsive gambler, and police had suspected he fled to Las Vegas.

The assault allegedly happened in January. Brown was featured on the show in February.
