Police arrested three Massachusetts suspects following a knife-point robbery reported early Monday morning at Bally’s Hotel Casino in Lincoln, Rhode Island, according to authorities.
Lincoln police said officers responded to the casino at approximately 1:43 a.m. on December 29, 2025, after receiving a report of a robbery. Investigators determined that two women allegedly conspired to lure a male victim from the casino floor to a hotel room within the property.

Following an investigation, Lincoln police arrested three suspects, all of whom are from Massachusetts.
The male suspect was identified as 28-year-old Dominyck S. Sims. Police said Sims is charged with first-degree robbery, conspiracy, possession of weapons other than firearms prohibited, and disorderly conduct.

The second female suspect, 19-year-old Tashawana Tuckta-Warner, is charged with first-degree robbery and conspiracy.
