Like playing online live casino and looking for reasons why? Well your safety for one.

On Tuesday 23^rd July, Paul Johann Morin, 32, of Bowie was charged in relation to the two crimes concerning women at a Maryland Live Casino robbery scene.

With casino play as a form of big entertainment in the U.S. it begs the question as to how safe are offline casinos these days?

Police at the scene of the two incidents confirmed that Mr Morin was in fact charged with armed robbery along with second degree assault and a string of other offences. It was said that he initially tried to take a 71-year-old woman’s purse at knifepoint at approximately 7.45am whilst trying to depart via an elevator. The attempt to steal the purse was unsuccessful and Morin fled the scene.

Furthermore, on escaping this incident momentarily, Mr Morin then proceeded to approach a woman in her mid thirties in the casino car park and hold her at knifepoint also until she handed across an unknown sum of money. Adding to the second part of the casino robbery.

The move to online Live Casino

In the UK alone, online live casino play already accounts for around 25% of online casino play and looks set to continue with the likes of Playtech now behind market leaders such as William Hill and others. With the ever increasing interest with big name operators looking to gain penetration into the U.S. online gaming market, this could further highlight the benefits of online casino play.

Bagged and tagged for the casino robbery

Anne Arundel County police confirmed the incident took place on Sunday 21^st July, and were appealing for people to come forward with any information. They had initially studied CCTV surveillance, alert witnesses and general casino security of the incident and had highlighted a description of their man.

Mr Morin is being held at the Anne Arundel County Detention Center whilst awaiting further prosecution. There is currently no lawyer listed for him in the county court records.
