A roulette dealer at Caesars Casino in New Orleans and a Violet man were arrested Friday and accused of stealing more than $10,000 from the casino through late bets, according to Louisiana State Police.
Ahmod Junius, 23, and the dealer, 46-year-old Margaret Lake, were each arrested on a count of theft between $5,000 and $25,000, troopers said.
On Tuesday, detectives from the New Orleans Office of the State Police Gaming Enforcement Division began investigating the theft and determined that Lake was intentionally assisting Junius by allowing him to place several late wagers, according to State Police.
Detectives executed search and arrest warrants at Junius’ Violet home Friday, arresting him and booking him into the Orleans Justice Center.
