Las Vegas Man Pleads Guilty to Committing Three Armed Bank Robberies

LAS VEGAS - Las Vegas man pleaded guilty on Monday to committing three armed bank robberies in January 2025.

According to court documents, from January 9, 2025, to January 25, 2025, Denzel Brishard Jones robbed a bank in North Las Vegas and a bank and a credit union in Henderson. During the three robberies, he brandished an XBG BB-gun to make a display of force that reasonably caused the employees to fear bodily harm.

"Violent crime has no place in our community. Armed robberies terrorize innocent employees and bystanders," said First Assistant United States Attorney Sigal Chattah for the District of Nevada. "Our office will continue to aggressively prosecute anyone who uses a firearm to threaten, intimidate, or steal."

Jones pleaded guilty to three counts of armed bank robbery. He faces a maximum statutory penalty of 75 years in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for October 8, 2026, before U.S. District Judge Jennifer A. Dorsey.

First Assistant U.S. Attorney Sigal Chattah for the District of Nevada and Special Agent in Charge Christopher S. Delzotto for the FBI Las Vegas Field Office made the announcement.

The FBI, the Henderson Police Department, and the North Las Vegas Police Department investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Melinda Brewer is prosecuting the case.
