LAS VEGAS (KLAS) – A string of robberies in the Summerlin area ended with the arrest of three suspects at a local restaurant on Tuesday, according to Las Vegas Metro police.
While monitoring calls for service the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Fusion Watch center noticed a concerning pattern between two incidents and then a third robbery occurred in the same area.
Police later determined that the suspect met victims through an online selling platform, arrived in a black BMW with a license plate covered by rag, and sometimes accompanied by a blue Dodge Challenger.
The Fusion Watch Center was then able to identify the BMW’s concealed license plate and entered a hot plate alert. Both vehicles were located at a restaurant within three hours of the third incident with the help of several LVMPD area command centers, according to police.
