CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) -

Cleveland police are investigating a report made by a man who says he was robbed after leaving the downtown casino, but he says the robbery happened blocks away.

It happened on East 6th and Superior early Wednesday evening.

19 Action News Reporter Ed Gallek is waiting for more information from the Chief's office, but this report appears very different from one a week ago. Two men say they were robbed of their winnings just outside the casino. Police did arrest a suspect in that case.

In the latest case, Third District Detectives will follow up.
