He was booked on four counts of attempted murder and two counts of conspiracy to commit murder, according to the report.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They were in the lot walking toward the casino when they were wounded. Their injuries weren\u2019t life-threatening, but each required treatment at Mississippi\u2019s Regional One Hospital.<\/p>\n

Holly and possibly other suspects fled in a white Infiniti with a Mississippi license plate, according to WMC<\/em>, a Tennessee TV station.<\/p>\n

The casino is located near the Mississippi River, some 30 miles south of Memphis, Tenn.<\/p>\n

\n

In 2021, Holly was arrested for several armed robberies at businesses in Tate County, Mississippi, WHBQ<\/em> reported. He was arrested for similar charges in Memphis in July 2022, authorities added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Holly allegedly failed to show up at court to face the charges after posting bond.<\/p>\n

Neither of the suspects were injured. They were 21 and 22 years of age.<\/p>\n

Neither woman was identified in a report from Click on Detroit<\/em>, a regional news site.<\/p>\n

Man in Bunny Mask Robs Casino<\/h2>\n
