Missouri State Highway Patrol(MSHP) troopers say one suspect in the Boonville Casino robbery is still at large and considered armed and dangerous.

Investigators say the two suspects entered the casino on March 25, just after 2 p.m. Once inside, the suspects went directly to the casino’s bank area and stole more than $1.2M in cash.

Troopers say that a patron tackled one of the suspects, but the suspects left the casino after a fight with that patron.

According to MSHP, Benjamin Michael-Dass Charles, 21, of Columbia, Missouri, was identified as a suspect. Charles was an employee of Isle of Capri Casino.
