Police search for casino thief
LAS VEGAS — A cabbie and another man were arrested on suspicion of being in cahoots with a wig-wearing gunman who snatched $33,000 in chips from a Las Vegas casino, police said Friday. The search was still on, however, for the robber who threatened a poker dealer with an unloaded gun. The gunman in Thursday’s holdup, identified as Steven Gao, 45, went to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino and grabbed the chips from a pai gow table before fleeing in a taxi driven by 61-year-old Hiroyuki Yamaguchi, Lt. Ray Steiber said.
SAN FRANCISCO — A storm system moving into Northern California has created the possibility that San Francisco will see its first significant snowfall in 35 years. Weather forecasters say there’s just a 10 percent chance that a drop in temperatures could combine with precipitation to create snow late Friday and early today, but that hasn’t stopped the tech-savvy city from looking skyward with anticipation.
