Man Arrested On Charges Of Theft, Insufficient Funds For Casino Markers

A man is facing charges in Las Vegas for stealing more than $600,000 from casinos on the Strip.

Sang Lee was arrested this week in relation to the crimes which occurred over a span of three years.

According to the arrest warrant and criminal complaint, Lee signed three checks to The Venetian totaling $100,000 in 2016, two checks totaling $25,000 to the Palazzo in 2016 and 2017, and three checks to Wynn Las Vegas for $100,000 each in 2017.

Casino markers are generally defined as short-term, no-interest credit lines extended by casinos. The borrower repays them within the specified period of time, usually around 30 days.

Lee is facing multiple theft and insufficient funds charges and has a hearing scheduled Oct. 7 at the Regional Justice Center.
