Las Vegas police were investigating an armed robbery at a bar in the western Las Vegas Valley early Friday.

Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Esmeralda Boveda said a man with a gun entered the business in the 3400 block of Hualapai Way at 6 a.m. Boveda did not identify the business, but the Las Vegas Review-Journal observed a large police presence at The Lodge on Hualapai, near West Desert Inn Road.

“A white male entered the business, brandished a handgun at employees,” Boveda said. “The white male fled the business with money taken from the business.”

Boveda said officers were searching for a suspect. No one was injured and no further details were released.
