A man and a woman were arrested this morning after leading Las Vegas Metro on a hour car chase.
The chase ended just before 7:00AM when the car was stopped the Sun Coast, which is located in far the far western area of the Valley. It is a large casino, so why they stopped there is really surprising. It's not if they don't have armed guards, surveillance cameras everywhere and at 7 in the morning, the place is quiet, so he can't blend into a crowd.
The guy did point a gun at a security guard but he was also taken into custody by a brave security guard.
This started when the thieves stole equipment from a car or truck, not too far from the casino then they drove around the valley, mostly on the northwest side. Watching the chase on TV, it was interesting to watch the driver- he did drive fairly safe, though he went against traffic a few times.
Metro did a good job. They stayed back and let the police helicopter take charge. There were no accidents and everyone went home safely, while the thugs went to jail.

I am sure the detectives are also questioning the male driver as he somewhat matches the description of a murder suspect in a home invasion that happen yesterday morning.
