Help! The Slot Machine Stole My Money!

In a rather funny incident that brought this writer to near tears (in a funny funny HAHA type of way of course), a Florida man was detained by police after he dialed 911 to report that the slot machines inside the Tampa Bay Hard Rock Hotel and Casino “robbed” him of his money!

Yes, you read that right - he made TWO…count em, TWO - separate 911 calls, all in the name of the dastardly casino conglomerates robbing him bone dry!

The casino patron, Jose Gutierrez, was apparently sober as can be during the time in which he put in his own money into a slot machine he had been playing for several hours, and then willingly chose to keep feeding the slot more and more cash…until he of course was broke and cleaned out.

This really wasn’t the worst of Mr. Gutierrez’s troubles though. He was later charged with misusing 911 AND violating his felony probation at the time - something that has landed him behind bars without the possibility of bail!

Talk about a solid start to the week.
