Las Vegas police: Allegiant Air worker accused in $263K luggage embezzlement scheme
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — An Allegiant Air employee allegedly stole hundreds of thousands of dollars in a scheme involving payments for damaged or missing luggage, according to documents the 8 News Now Investigators obtained. Alexis Herrera faces one count of theft for allegedly stealing $263,000 from the Las Vegas-based airline from 2022 to 2024, records said. Metro police detectives believe Herrera, a system baggage service coordinator, filed false claims for lost or damaged baggage and then reimbursed herself, documents said. She admitted to the theft, according to detectives. Police began their investigation into the alleged embezzlement last November, they said. The company terminated her in October. In all, police suspect Herrera 'altered' or 'fabricated' refunds for dozens of transactions, replacing an e-mail address on file with her own, documents said. Each transaction ranged from $1,000 to $4,000. 'Alternatively, Herrera used 'dummy' itinerary and passenger information to fabricate baggage settlement claims, using the email addresses associated with her own bank account,' police said. Employees at Allegiant began their internal investigation when a customer contacted the company, saying they never received their settlement payment, documents said. As the company fired her, Herrera promised to repay the money, police said. She told detectives 'she used the money for rent, down payment on a car and general living expenses.' Herrera posted bond and was scheduled to appear in court on July 7. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Why Tilman Fertitta became Wynn Resorts' top shareholder
The Nevada Gaming Control Board on Wednesday recommended Wynn Resorts Ltd.'s top shareholder and its chief operating officer suitable for licensing in Kirk Hendrick's last meeting as board chair. Board members voted unanimously to recommend Tilman Fertitta suitable as a beneficial shareholder of the company and Brian Gullbrants as an officer. Final approval of licensing is expected by the Nevada Gaming Commission on June 26. Fertitta is owner of Landry's Inc., which controls the Golden Nugget casino franchise and has properties in Las Vegas, Laughlin and Lake Tahoe, is owner of the National Basketball Association Houston Rockets and is Wynn's top shareholder. In April, Fertitta acquired 400,000 shares of Wynn through a company buyback program to bring his total to 13 million, roughly a 12.3 percent stake. In May, Fertitta said he was forging ahead on a Strip project, an as-yet-unnamed 43-story, 2,420-room resort on 6.2 acres on the southeast corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Harmon Avenue. Later that month, he paused the direct oversight of his business portfolio to take a Trump administration appointment as ambassador to Italy and San Marino. Fertitta, a cousin of Red Rock Resorts executives Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta, was required to resign from his business holdings to comply with federal ethics rules, but is allowed to own shares and collect dividends as a passive investor in Wynn. Fertitta did not attend Wednesday's meeting, and his attorney, Steven Scheinthal, said that on Wednesday Fertitta was moving his possessions to Italy. Scheinthal said Fertitta is unhappy with Wynn's recent stock price and with some of the company's recent management decisions, but believes in the company's investment in a resort in the United Arab Emirates, Wynn Al Marjan Island, which will open in 2027. In the past month, Wynn shares have dipped around $10 a share to Friday's closing price of $84.70 a share. Gullbrants recommended Gullbrants, who opened Encore Boston Harbor for the company in 2019, later moved to Las Vegas and became chief operating officer North America, overseeing both Las Vegas resorts and the Boston operation. Gullbrants, also an officer on the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority board of directors, addressed the many management changes that have occurred at Wynn since former CEO Steve Wynn left the company in 2018. He also stressed the importance of company culture, respect among employees and regulatory compliance. In May, Wynn Resorts was disciplined by the Nevada Gaming Commission with a $5.5 million fine resulting from the discovery of an illegal scheme to recruit high-rolling gamblers through unlicensed money transmitting businesses. Wednesday's meeting was the last one for Hendrick, who announced in January that he planned to step down as chairman at the conclusion of Nevada's 2025 legislative session. In April, it was announced that Mike Dreitzer, former CEO of Gaming Arts LLC, a privately held Las Vegas-based gaming equipment supplier that holds more than 150 gaming licenses, would take the chairman's role in July. Dreitzer also served in the Nevada attorney general's office. Throughout Wednesday's meeting, Hendrick was applauded by applicants and attorneys for the 2½ years he has served as chairman. ___ Copyright (C) 2025, Tribune Content Agency, LLC.
