A guest at Horseshoe Casino was robbed

This past weekend, a guy was robbed while using Horseshoe Casino Baltimore's parking garage.

According to Baltimore TV station WBAL, the victim was approached by two males in the garage's second-floor stairs before they robbed him.

"They were armed, had on masks, hoodies,” the victim said. “They asked me to take everything out of my pockets. I had no problem doing so. Specifically, they took my car keys and wallet,” Justin added.

The amount of money in the wallet at the time is unknown.

According to WBAL, the criminals also tried to take his automobile, but they were unable to start the engine for some reason.

The victim reported the holdup to the casino security personnel right away. They then got in touch with Baltimore police.

His life is not worth anything

Looking back, the victim was relieved he was unharmed. 

“The first thing in my head is, nothing in my pockets is worth my life,” Justin told WBAL. “You can take whatever, as long as I don’t get shot. Do what you have to do. Everything is replaceable — my life isn’t though.”
