The criminal that rode into the world renowned Bellagio casino resort on the Las Vegas Strip, continues to be in hot water and now it seems that even more charges will be brought against the brazen criminal on top of charges already filed.

It all started on 14th December 2010 when a local Las Vegas 29 years old man Anthony M. Carleo rode on his motorcycle up to the Bellagio using the Flamingo Road entrance and walked up the short 150 meters to the craps tables while waving a handgun.

He garbed loads of high value casino chips to the total value of $1.5 million without any of the casino security resisting him as they were more concerned with the safety of the casino's patrons and did not want any shots fired.

The robber still had his motorcycle helmet on so it was impossible to recognize him, however the casino surveillance followed him until he reached the door and then police were called in.

The casino did not confirm if the chips stolen had radio transmitters installed in them or not, but that proved as unnecessary as the casino issued a press release stating that they plan on discontinuing the use of the $25,000 chips, giving the thief a short window of opportunity to exchange them.

It was also discovered that he also robbed another Las Vegas Casino a few days before the Bellagio. If the case against him is proven in court and his sentence will need to run consecutively; he faces decades in jail.
