Two robbers made a bold move in the middle of a crowded casino today... Pulling a gun and demanding cash from a coin cage at Mandalay Bay. It happened just after four on Friday as tourists were arriving for NASCAR weekend.

The men targeted a coin cage near the House of Blues. They were wearing nylon masks, and one of them jumped the cage counter to get the cash out. The robbers were confronted by security as they tried to escape. "When they were challenged by security one of them either had a small caliber firearm or a starter pistol or a pistol that fires blanks and fired a round up into the air." Jose Montoya with Las Vegas Metro told News 3.

No one was hurt. That shot was not fired on the casino floor. The robbers stole an undisclosed amount of cash and escaped in a small gold colored car. So far it hasn't been recovered. Metro is still reviewing surveillance tapes of the robbery, those won't be released to the media until early next week. Casino robberies are not common in the valley, we only see about 10 to 15 a year. Metro says they make up less than one percent of robberies they investigate.
