A casino outside of Las Vegas was forced to evacuate due to an apparent electrical fire, and this was all captured on live television.

Authorities on the scene at Terrible's Roadhouse Casino in Nye County shortly after 6 pm Friday still had not determined the cause of the fire or its exact location.

Police were also guarding the property due to the significant cash on hand.

A crew from the A&E reality series Live PD was on hand following officers live and broadcasting to viewers nationwide in the U.S. Officers on the scene also reported smelling smoke.
