Customer injured in armed robbery at Las Vegas bar

Updated October 29, 2018 - 9:30 pm

Las Vegas police are searching for two men who injured a customer during an armed robbery Monday morning at a northwest valley pub.

About 5:15 a.m. two armed men wearing masks walked into the Torrey Pines Pub, 6374 W. Lake Mead Blvd., and ordered the bartender and patrons to lay on the ground while they stole money from the register, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. David Gordon said.

A male customer was pistol-whipped, Metro spokesman Aden OcampoGomez later said, and was hospitalized but is expected to survive.

The ski-masked robbers fled the pub and were still at large.

Anyone with information on the robbery can contact Metro’s robbery section at 702-828-3591, or Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555 to remain anonymous.
