MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) - Authorities are looking for a suspect who robbed a Missoula casino at gunpoint and then fled the scene.

The Missoulian reports (https://bit.ly/1QPCa0v ) that police Sgt. Travis Welsh says the robbery was reported early Monday. An employee had said a man entered the casino, pointed a gun at a clerk and demanded cash.

The suspect allegedly received an undisclosed amount of money and then ordered an employee and a customer into a restroom before leaving the casino. Police say he headed west on foot.

The suspect had reportedly been wearing all black and was carrying a black and red backpack.

The case remains under investigation.
