The Billings Police Department is looking for a man who robbed a West End casino at gunpoint this afternoon.
Just before 2 p.m., a man walked into Dotty’s Casino, 1309 Grand Ave., brandished a handgun and demanded money, according to a press release from the Billings Police Department.
The man left the casino with an undisclosed amount of cash. He is described as a white male in his 20s, 5 feet, 10 inches tall and with a slender build and red hair. He was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, baseball hat and sunglasses.
After leaving the casino, the robber was seen getting into a silver, 1990s-model, four-door passenger car with a large dent in its rear left quarter panel, according to the release. Police said the car may be a Chrysler.
No injuries were reported.
The robbery remains under investigation.
Anyone with information on the robbery or suspect is asked to call the Billings Police Department at 657-8460 or, to report tips anonymously, the Crimestoppers hot line at 245-6660.
