A security guard at a local poker hall has been charged with stealing a $100,000 diamond ring that a patron accidentally dropped. The high roller intended to showcase the ring to a friend when it dropped from his coat. The ring box was found by a dealer who gave it to a security guard, who then allegedly took the ring during his check. Security footage revealed the theft and identified the guard, who later confessed and indicated where the ring could be found. Investigations into casino staff crimes, particularly those involving large sums, while rare, have occurred in the past.
A local poker hall security guard has been charged with stealing a $100,000 diamond ring that a high roller accidentally dropped on the floor.
The victim brought the ring to the Parkwest Casino because he wanted to show it to a friend, but it likely dropped from his coat.
The security guard allegedly took the ring when no one was watching, unaware that security cameras captured the act.
In 2020, two individuals, including a Parkwest dealer, were involved in a $4 million cheating scheme at baccarat tables.
