Metro Police today released a composite sketch of a man wanted in the September robbery of a Las Vegas Strip resort casino.

Police are asking for the public's help in finding a man caught on videotape during the robbery. Authorities haven't identified the casino.

The man walked into the high limit slot counter about 3:05 a.m. Sept. 25, demanding money from the clerk, police said. The man then left the casino with an undisclosed amount of cash.

He was last seen running to the parking lot of a nearby hotel and fleeing on a red sport motorcycle, police said.

The man is described as white, 5-foot-10-inches tall with a muscular build, wearing a black Ed Hardy-type baseball cap, a long-sleeved, white Affliction shirt, shorts, black or brown shoes and carrying a dark gray, single-strap book or computer bag.

An earlier hotel security photo shows the man wearing a long-sleeved black shirt.

Metro detectives are asking anyone who knows the man or his whereabouts to call the Metro robbery section at (702) 828-3591, or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at (702) 385-5555.
