PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Police say a man who won more than $10,000 at a Philadelphia casino was followed and robbed as he was heading home.

It happened at about 5 a.m. Saturday after the victim got into cab at SugarHouse Casino. Authorities say an armed masked man approached him when he got out of the cab and robbed him.

A pair of robbers stole all of the man’s belongings and took off. The man immediately called police after the gunmen fled and they were able to track the suspects through the victim’s stolen iPhone all the way back to the casino.

Police say one suspect was found in a SugarHouse bathroom.

Charges have not yet been filed.
