A woman with several thousand dollars in her purse was robbed early Monday outside a gaming venue in Wisconsin. 

The only robber snatched her bag while she and her spouse walked back to their car. 

The pair was at Ho-Chunk Gaming Madison on New Year’s Eve, where she won an undisclosed sum of money. The couple departed from the property around 2 a.m. 

According to Wisconsin TV station WKOW, a man came up to them outside and requested a ride. 

The pair declined to offer him a lift. He subsequently took the handbag and fled. 

When the Madison Police Department (MPD) officers got there, the suspect was no longer in the vicinity. 

As of the beginning of this week, MPD officers were still looking for the robber. Local news reports did not provide a description, but the officers might have received details about the robber from the victims. Officers may have also examined surveillance footage to see the suspect. 

Both victims seemed to have not sustained injuries during the robbery. 

Females Misappropriate $15K From Casino 

This week, two women from South Dakota were scheduled to appear in court for allegedly taking roughly $15,000 from a nearby casino. 

They utilized the stolen goods to free a man imprisoned in jail. Every woman was seeing him. 

Whitney Christopherson, 28, and Izabella Powell, 26, from Sioux Falls, SD, reportedly took money from Happy Jacks Casino in Sioux Falls on August 4, as reported by South Dakota TV station KELO. 

Following the theft, the duo headed to the jail to pay his bail. 

The police have just recently apprehended them. Both individuals were taken into custody at Minnehaha County Jail earlier this week. 

Christopherson had been employed at the gaming establishment. Powell was with her at the time of the supposed crime. 

While talking to local law enforcement, Christopherson stated that she took the money only after being threatened, according to KELO. 

Casino Patron Took Money 

A woman was incarcerated this week after reportedly taking $500 from a hotel at Rivers Casino Pittsburgh. 

Dominique Johnson, 32, from McKeesport, Pa., was first arrested by Pennsylvania State Police for the burglary, as reported by Pittsburgh TV station WPXI. 

She reportedly took the money from the Landing Hotel, situated at the casino. 

Authorities identified Johnson as the suspect after officers reviewed surveillance footage that recorded the theft. 

Johnson was subsequently arrested for a narcotics offense after officers discovered drug paraphernalia on her, which included three glass instruments utilized for smoking drugs. According to the police, they had traces of narcotics on them. 

The pipes were placed inside cigarette cartons, which were located within a fanny pack. 

Troopers also checked her name in a computer and discovered a pending warrant for her failure to appear in court. She was also charged for that offense. 

Johnson was processed at Allegheny County Jail. Her case was handed over to the prosecutors.
