Firefighters returning to their truck after a call at the Tropicana Sunday morning found it was no longer there.
Crews arrived at the casino at 3:20 a.m. for a report of people trapped in an elevator, police Lt. Dan Ritzel said. They parked on Brighton Avenue by the bus terminal, and went up to the 31st floor.
After freeing the trapped patrons, they came back to find the truck wasn't there, Ritzel said.
They called security, and about 15 to 20 minutes later, found the truck parked in the North Tower valet area, Ritzel said.
A check of security cameras found no video of the area where the truck had been.
Police are investigating.
