/ CBS Boston

UNCASVILLE, Conn. (AP) — Tribal police at the Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut are searching for two men who made off with thousands of dollars worth of gambling chips.

Police say one of the suspects took the chips off a casino table Friday night and punched the victim, who tried to confront the thief.

Authorities say the robber then ran off and left the casino with another man, and both drove away in a maroon-colored vehicle.

Anyone with information about the theft is urged to call the Mohegan Tribal Police Department at 860-862-7460. All calls will be kept confidential.
