MISSOULA, Mont. - A 24-year-old man suspected of robbing a Missoula casino at knifepoint has been arrested.

Police arrested Russell Miller of Missoula early Friday after someone spotted a man matching the robber's description in a nearby casino. Authorities say a man entered the Lucky Diamond casino at about 5:30 a.m. Tuesday, played at one of the machines for a few minutes and

then demanded money from the clerk while wielding a knife. The suspect left with an undisclosed amount of cash.

Sgt. Travis Welsh says Miller ran from police and was arrested for obstructing an officer, but he now will face charges stemming from the casino robbery.
