Punter smashed up a betting shop after losing £500 on a 'crack cocaine' fixed-odds fruit machine

A furious punter smashed up a betting shop after losing £500 on a 'crack cocaine' fixed-odds fruit machine.

The man had been pouring his cash into a 'high stakes gaming machine', but after admitting defeat, he snapped and flew into a rage. He decided it was time to leave the shop in Croydon, south London, but stopped at the door and walked back inside, picked up a seat and drove it into the electronic betting machine.
