UK Arcade Amusements Change Lady Robbed By Mr Spotty

When you go into a UK amusements arcade you get your change for your notes and get robbed by the 75% payout fruit machines and 10p pushers.

Mr Spotty does not agree.

Some spotty boy robber asked the change lady in the Sunset Amusements on Southgate in Elland for change of a tenner, then he and his friend asked the change lady for help with a fruit machine. When she came out of the change box, Mr Spotty stuck a knife up to the arcade lady and robbed her of a few quid.

Both were white and wore black quilted jackets, black leather-looking gloves and blue jeans. One had bad acne and short black hair combed forward and flicked up at the front.

He had a tattoo about the size of a 50p on the right side of his neck. His accomplice has short, light brown spiky hair.

Det Insp Jeff Ashton, of Calderdale CID, said: "The descriptions of these two are excellent and we feel sure someone knows who they are.
