The man walked into the rear of Danny's Slot Country, 4213 Boulder Highway, at about 5 a.m. and went to the cashier's counter, police said.

The man pulled a black, long-barrel handgun from his waist and told the cashier to "Give me all the money," police said.

The man is described as black, in his 20s, 5-foot-11-inches tall with a medium build and last seen wearing a dark ball cap with the letter "A" on the front, police said.

He wore a gray, hooded sweatshirt-styled jacket, a white polo shirt with horizontal stripes, dark jeans and white shoes, police said.
