Metro Police seek assistance from the public in identifying a man who robbed a bar at gunpoint Oct. 15 in the southwestern Las Vegas Valley.
The unidentified man, who was carrying a small handgun, broke the front glass door of a bar in the 4700 block of South Durango Drive in the early morning hours, police said.
The man carried a large black duffel bag with black handles. He told the clerk to get on the ground and then tied up the victim, police said.
