Two Las Vegas men are facing charges of robbery with a deadly weapon, kidnapping and impersonating police officers and auto burglary.

According to Metro Police, Charles Sean Rush and Christopher Ontiveros-Mendez worked for a bail bonds company and were trying to find a man who had skipped bail.

While trying to find the man, who they believed was working as a pimp, they called up two different women, who were working as dancers, to come to Rush's apartment on West Russell Road near Buffalo Drive.

When the first woman arrived at the apartment, Rush and Ontiveros-Mendez told her they were police officers, put her in handcuffs and took her purse, police said. The victim also noticed that more than $600, which had been in her car, was gone.

After letting her go, because they claimed she had been cooperative, she called police to report the robbery. 

Metro Police are looking for a man who robbed two businesses in the southwest part of the Las Vegas valley.

According to police, the robberies happened just a few hours apart May 7. The first one was at a business near Durango Drive and Russell Road. The man walked into the store, brought an item to the counter, pulled out a folding knife and demanded money.

The employee gave the man money and he left.

Police believe the same man then robbed another business about two hours later at Fort Apache Road and Twain Avenue. He was last seen fleeing south on Fort Apache Road.

The suspect is described as an Asian male about 30 to 35 years old. He is between 5-foot-5 and 5-foot-7 and between 150 and 160 pounds. At the time of the robbery, he was wearing a black New York Yankees baseball cap, a gray hoodie with orange and white writing, tan shorts, black socks, white sneakers and a wedding ring.

Metro Police are searching for two men who tried to rob a cab driver back in February.

According to police, the men got into the cab at about 8:30 p.m. February 16 near the intersection of Tropicana Avenue and Decatur Boulevard.

The men then used a handgun to try to rob the cab's driver. The driver was able to escape without getting hurt.

One person police are looking for is described as a black man, 18 years old, 5-foot-6 and 145 pounds with a dark complexion. The second person is a white man, 18 years old, 5-foot-1, 130 pounds with a fair complexion.

Anyone with information is asked to call Metro's Robbery Section at (702) 822-3591, or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 385-5555.
