Man robs Christmas tree nursery in northwest Las Vegas
A man robbed a Christmas tree nursery at gunpoint Tuesday night in the northwest valley, Las Vegas police said.
The Metropolitan Police Department responded at 8:35 p.m. to reports of a robbery on the 7300 block of Tule Springs Road, near North Durango Drive and Farm Road, Lt. David Gordon said.
Gordon said a man walked up to a checkout counter at Moon Valley Nurseries Northwest Las Vegas, flashed a handgun and demanded money. The cashier complied, Gordon said, and the man took off north on Tule Springs Road and “disappeared into a neighborhood north of the Christmas tree lot.”
No further information was available Tuesday night.
