HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Police say they're looking for a robber who made off with an undisclosed amount of money after brandishing a gun at a race and sports book betting cashier during the weekend in Henderson.

Henderson police released surveillance images of the man wearing a dark baseball cap in the 6 p.m. Saturday robbery at the Sunset Station casino-hotel.

No injuries were reported.

It was the third armed robbery reported in 10 weeks at a Station Casinos property in southern Nevada.

No arrests have been made in the previous cases.

Las Vegas police are investigating 1 a.m. Nov. 9 robbery at gunpoint of a casino cashier and a Sept. 16 heist in which a Palace Station sports betting employee was punched by a man who then ran from the casino.
