Three men walked into an Atlantic City Casino and walked out with half a million dollars. But, the money wasn't won, rather it was stolen in the form of jewelry from a store inside the gambling resort.
Investigators say three men stole $500,000 worth of jewelry from the "Jewels" store inside the Borgata around 8:45 Monday night. The theft was a smash-and-grab where the men broke the cases, grabbed what they could and left as quickly as possible, according to investigators.
Police say one suspect was dressed in a blue jacket, one in a gray hooded sweatshirt and one in a dark-colored jacket. The suspects fled on foot before entering a dark-colored vehicle, according to police.
No one was injured during the incident. Police reviewed surveillance video and released photos of the three men who pulled off the heist. A fourth person -- believed to be the getaway driver -- is also wanted.
The Borgata opened July 2, 2003, as the first new casino in the resort town in 13 years. It has 11 retail shops, 2,000 guest rooms and suites, nearly 200 gambling tables and more than 3,400 slot machines.

Not as dumb as that motorcycle thief who stole chips from the Bellagio then tried to sell them to someone on two plus two...

Good luck moving it.

Easy to move.

Easy to move.

Those who own casinos don't like being robbed and are well connected enough to find out where they were moved. Plus, they'll be lucky to get $.10 on the dollar. The criminals will never be caught and this will be the last we hear of it but Vegas is going to have three new ditches.

Since it's jewelry, it will be easy. It can be disassembled and sold as metals and gems without a hitch, but you'd probably lose overall value. The jewelry itself can be sold anywhere overseas or through a fence to get it there. No way casino owners would be able to track its whereabouts unless they got extremely lucky.

This isn't one-of-a-kind only-redeemable-in-one-building casino chips we're talking about here. Stolen art/jewelry/drugs/etc can be sold anywhere in the world at anytime no problem.

Sure, but like you once they are stripped for parts you lose value. It's already pretty common to get $.10 on the dollar and that's with pieces intact. Once you start selling it for parts, how much you really getting? Hardly worth being hunted for.

One of the 4 guys will talk. They always do. They don't need to catch all 4, only 1. He'll spill the beans for some sore of deal. Other guys get the shaft.

Should have just hit a few cash/gold shops and called it a day. Shoty surveilance cams combined with a depleted police force = scott free.....

Hit a big casino like the Borg and you're fukked...Borg will pay for 24hr detective work and not rest until they catch these dumb fukks..All they gotta do is nail down one guy and he will squiel like a pig. Wouldnt be surprised if all 3 end up dead by friday........

Shit is all insured so the store will take no loss. If they took diamonds and watches, moving them isn't a problem.

Robbery was in Atlantic City, not Vegas. The store is most likely leased to retailer too. Casino could give 2 shits.

This. And the bit about the insurance. Robbers will likely sell the jewelry whole, make a good pull, try again somewhere else, and get clipped.
