Las Vegas police are investigating a robbery early Monday morning at a motel on the south end of the Strip.
About 3:30 a.m. a man walked into the Diamond Inn Motel, 4605 S. Las Vegas Blvd., showed the front desk clerk a handgun and demanded money, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Bill Pates said.
He got away with the cash, and robbery detectives are investigating, Pates said.
At 4 a.m., Metro officers and detectives gathered in the motel’s parking lot and taped off the entrance to the building.
Further details were not immediately available.
