Las Vegas police seek duo believed to have robbed 2 armored trucks

Police are seeking the public’s help finding two armed men believed to have carried out a pair of armored truck robberies in Las Vegas since early June.

The first robbery occurred June 5, when the men drove a white sedan up to an armored truck parked in front of a store on the 5300 block of South Fort Apache Road and ordered the driver to drop money he had just picked up. The driver complied and the gunmen fled.

On July 5, two gunmen approached an armored truck driver at 490 E. Silverado Ranch Boulevard as he was completing a cash pickup and forced him to drop his bags.

Police believe the same suspects are involved in both incidents.

The first was described as a black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall with a heavy build and a dark complexion.

The other was described as a black man, 5 feet 9 inches tall, with an athletic build.

Anyone with information regarding these crimes may contact Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.
