A person is in custody after a robbery Thursday morning at the Stratosphere.
Las Vegas police were called at 3:10 a.m. to the hotel-casino at 2000 Las Vegas Blvd. South about a robbery at the cashiers’ cage.
The robber showed what looked like a gun, made off with cash and left in a taxi, Metro Lt. Dori Koren said. He said officers later found the cab at a different location and took the robber into custody.
Koren said there weren’t any “significant disruptions” to people not involved in the robbery.
