Las Vegas police arrested two people in connection with a Monday night robbery at the South Point.

Jail records show Jason Lockwood and Tina Lopez, both 37, were booked Tuesday afternoon into the Clark County Detention Center.

Police said a woman walked up to a casino cage at the South Point, showed the cashier a gun and demanded money.

She fled the scene in an older model sedan that was waiting outside the casino.

Both face charges of robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.
