An Overland Park man was robbed inside his garage as he returned home Saturday night after a trip to Ameristar Casino, said Overland Park Police Department spokesman Officer Jim Weaver.

The man had pulled his car into his garage in the 5700 block of West 128th Street shortly before 10:30 p.m., Weaver said.

He'd gotten out of his vehicle when a white sport utility vehicle pulled up, Weaver said.

Two men got out of the SUV and went into the garage with guns, Weaver said.

They took the man's wallet and stole his 2002 Infinity, Weaver said.

Police continue to investigate. They're working with casino officials to determine whether the robbers watched the man gamble there.
