A 71-year-old man was robbed outside a New York casino after winning big bucks, police on Long Island said.
Suffolk County Police said they arrested the suspect who allegedly stole the man’s money in the parking lot of Jake’s 58 Casino Hotel in Islandia.
The man was walking to his car after winning a large cash payout at the casino Sunday afternoon when the suspect, Aaron Hayes, reached into his pocket and stole a small amount of money, police said.
Hayes ran away, but went back to the man when he realized he didn’t take much the first time, police said. He allegedly knocked the man down and started going through his pockets a second time.
