Cactus Petes Resort Casino is a premium entertainment and gaming destination located in Jackpot, Nevada. Recently, one visitor of the casino was arrested after he allegedly took out a knife when approached by law enforcement. A report released by Elko Daily reveals that the individual, identified with the initials, R.J.C., 41, of Idaho, was arrested on January 6 by a deputy from the Elko County Sheriff’s Office.

The incident at Cactus Petes Resort Casino is related to a call about a woman in distress who requested medical attention. Police were dispatched to the Jackpot casino to speak with the woman who appeared to be “frightened and skittish.” Upon interviewing the alleged victim, law enforcement heard that she was threatened by the 41-year-old suspect.

The woman claimed that if the suspect would not find her in their room, he would have killed her. Additionally, the woman, whose name was not disclosed, stated she was subject to battery, showing recent injuries, allegedly caused by the person who was subsequently detained.

After collecting the woman’s statement, police examined a bruise that “appeared to be recent.” This prompted the deputy from Elko County Sheriff’s Office to search for the person suspected of the crime.

The Suspect Was Arrested on Multiple Charges

It hasn’t taken long for law enforcement to find the 41-year-old suspect. He appeared to be at the front desk of the hotel casino, asking where the woman was located. After he was approached by police, the suspect shouted, “I have a knife” and allegedly drew a knife that he held clumsily. This action resulted in the deputy tasing the perpetrator who was subsequently arrested.

Reportedly, the 41-year-old was arrested on charges of domestic battery and assault with a deadly weapon on a protected person. Additionally, he is held on charges of assault with a deadly weapon against a first responder as well as resisting while in possession of a dangerous weapon other than a firearm.

Upon examining the individual’s record, law enforcement uncovered that he had a non-extradition warrant issued from California, along with a fugitive from justice warrant from his home state, Idaho. According to police officers, the person did not appear in court which resulted in the order issued from Ada County in Idaho.

Elsewhere in Nevada, a felon faces charges after sex trafficking a minor. The perpetrator used a firearm that he possessed illegally to threaten an underage girl, forcing her into prostitution.

Sports betting and casino platform provider, Digitain, continued its frenzy of new appointments and promotions with the appointment of Martin Martirosyan as its new deputy chief executive officer.

Experience to Support Further Growth

The addition of Martirosyan to the senior leadership team of Digitain brings a wealth of financial industry experience to the company gained across various positions in corporate business, products and risk management for HSBC.

Digitain founder Vardes Vardanyan commented on the news, outlining that Martirosyan, brings “that wealth of experience” needed by the group of companies as the business “continues to grow globally strategically across several multiple regulated markets” and the company continues to expand its roster of B2B partnerships.

Martirosyan, who holds a Ph.D. in economics, has spent most of his professional career working at HSBC, with his most recent role as the director of corporate banking and head of wholesale banking at the bank’s subsidiary in Armenia, HSBC Bank Armenia CJSC.

His other roles at HSBC include serving for a year between October 2015 and October 2016 as the senior business risk and control manager of global commercial banking, as well as the head of wholesale credit and market risk, deputy chief risk officer and deputy head of commercial banking, among others.

Also commenting on his appointment, Martirosyan expressed how “honored” he feels to be able “to join the Digitain Group” during times when the business experiences rapid expansion of its operations across “continental Europe, the UK and beyond.”

“The business is an example of a great organization, people, and culture, and technology delivery which has been recognized with multiple international and local industry and business awards,” he said, looking forward “to being part of this next period of Digitain’s growth story over the coming months and years ahead.”

Martirosyan, who has also given lectures at the State Engineering University of Armenia, is the latest piece added to the new-look personnel puzzle at Digitain, following the opening of the group’s new office in Romania at the beginning of the year.

First, Digitain promoted its chief business officer, Simon Westbury, to the role of chief executive officer at its subsidiary, Sport Generate, and tasked him with leveraging his more than 20 years of iGaming experience to foster growth and boost brand recognition.

In February, Digitain continued the managerial reshuffle by appointing Iain Hutchison as a chief revenue officer and charging him with responsibilities to spearhead the group’s revenue growth strategy and support efforts to expand the group’s global presence in the iGaming space.

Most recently, Digitain promoted its chief technology officer, Grigor Asoyan, to group deputy CEO of technology.
