Denton Bingo Robbery
24th January, 2008
Two men in masks robbed the Denton Bingo Hall on Tuesday. They walked inside the building, showing off their guns and a little later walked out with the night’s proceeds and two woman’s purses.
This is what customer Judy Good said about the robbers: "I don't want to compliment them, but they knew what they were doing."
There were only four people in the building at the time of the robbery at around 10:25 pm and the robbers got them all into the game room and ordered them to lie face down on the floor. After they commanded the employees to give all the cash from the cash apron and grabbed customers’ handbags as well.
The Denton Bingo Hall shares the profits from takings with a number of Denton charities.
