Two men were held at gun point and handed over more than $200 to a robber in the early hours of Sunday, September 16 in the parking lot of Resorts World Casino New York City, police said.

The victims, ages 18 and 19, were approached around 4:20 a.m. by a man, about 6’ tall and 180 pounds, as the pair was leaving the casino and headed toward their car.

The man pulled out a small black fire arm and pointed it at the two and demanded money, police said; the two men gave about $260 to the mugger before he fled the scene through the parking lot.

No shots were fired and the victims did not sustain any injuries.

The robber was last seen wearing a white sweater with black and orange diamonds, blue jeans and a black cap, police said.
