LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The casino cage at Caesars Palace was robbed just after midnight on Monday morning, and Las Vegas police say they've arrested a suspect.

Officers were called to the 3500 block of South Las Vegas Boulevard at 12:06 a.m., officials with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department confirmed. Court records confirm the robbery was reported at Caesars Palace.

Police say 37-year-old Jared Allen-James Booth was arrested for robbery with a deadly weapon. He was booked into the Clark County Detention Center and held on a bond of $40,000.
