FIFE, Wash. — The FBI is asking for the public’s help in identifying a man who robbed a Fife casino.
The holdup happened July 25 at BJ’s Bingo & Gaming, 4411 Pacific Highway East.
A man sporting a long, curly black wig under his baseball hat approached the cash counter and handed the teller a note. In the note, he demanded money and threatened to shoot the teller if they didn’t comply.
After being given cash, he placed the money in an envelope and fled on foot.
Although the robber implied he had a gun, no weapon was seen.
No one was injured in the robbery.
The suspect is described as a light-skinned black man in his early 20s with a slender build, thin mustache and goatee.
He was last seen wearing a tan long-sleeved polo shirt, light blue jeans, white baseball hat, eyeglasses, latex gloves and a curly, black wig in a ponytail.
Anyone with information on his identity is asked to call the Tacoma-Pierce County Crimestoppers Tip Line at 800-222-TIPS.
