Hospital Locked Down as Police Search for Armed Robbery Suspects

In Las Vegas, Nevada, police had to place a local hospital on lockdown as they searched for four suspects. Officers searched the entirety of a medical facility until the suspects' hiding spots were discovered. Allegedly, Metro police received a tip that the four people believed to be involved in an armed robbery were hiding at the hospital. They had just robbed a pawn store when they realized that officers were already on their tails. The investigating officers' suspicions were confirmed when they found the car associated with the robbery in the hospital's parking lot.

Police put the hospital on lockdown for three hours while they searched for the suspects. They finally located each of the robbers on separate floors of the medical building. Officers say that three men and one woman were taken into custody. Thanks to surveillance video feed and eyewitness reports of the vehicle, police were able to capture the suspects on the same day the armed robbery took place.
