‘Sweet talking duo’ robbed man of $15,000 Rolex watch and $1,000 in cash, police say
Florida police search for women that allegedly robbed a casino guest.
Police in Florida were on the hunt Friday for two women suspected of drugging a tourist at a casino and then robbing him of a $15,000 Rolex watch and $1,000 in cash.
The Broward Sheriff’s Office released surveillance footage this week hoping the public can help identify the “sweet-talking duo” involved in the incident at the Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood on Sept. 13. Investigators say the pair first approached the victim while he was playing poker at around 2 a.m.

They all were taken to the Sleep Inn & Suites in Dania Beach – and the victim told investigators that he lost consciousness after entering a room there.
