Las Vegas police are asking for the public’s help in finding a man involved in a Friday morning robbery near the Strip.

The man entered a business about 1:45 a.m. near the intersection of Flamingo Road and Koval Lane, approached employees, showed a black, semi-automatic handgun and demanded cash. Employees complied and the suspect fled on foot.

Police describe the man as 30 to 40 years old, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and between 180 and 190 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black fedora, a maroon striped button-down shirt and dark jeans.

Anyone with information should call Metro’s robbery section at 702-828-3591 or, to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555 or visit crimestoppersofnv.com. Tips directly leading to an arrest through Crime Stoppers could result in a cash reward.
