Metro police arrested a member of Nevada’s “Black Book” after he fled security at the Paris Hotel & Casino late Monday night, according to gaming authorities.

Tasia McDonald Musa, 41, was added to the Black Book – Nevada’s List of Excluded Persons, who are banned from entering casinos – on Jan. 29, 2015. He was added to the list after convictions involving stealing chips in casinos, described by gaming officials as “various convictions of crimes of moral turpitude.”

After Musa ran from security, Metro officers on patrol on the Strip spotted him crossing the street. After a brief pursuit on foot, police arrested Musa in front of the Bellagio fountains.
