Man arrested, suspected in theft of $61K in gaming chips at Strip casino
A man was arrested on suspicion of stealing a bag containing more than $60,000 in casino chips, police said.
Clayton Bollier, 28, was arrested Monday and faces a charge of felony theft.
On June 7, video surveillance from the Bellagio showed Bollier pick up a bag that was left on a slot machine. The victim said he was in town for the World Series of Poker, according to a Metropolitan Police Department arrest report.
On Monday, Bollier was recognized by Mandalay Bay security after Bollier trespassed.
Police said the bag contained $61,000 in casino chips.
Bollier remained in custody on $2,000 bail as of late Wednesday. He is due in court on Thursday.
