Police arrested several customers and workers on suspicion of possessing illegal gaming devices at 3am on Wednesday outside an arcade in California, US, reports CBS Los Angeles.
A short time later police removed arcade games and loaded them into a truck.
Neighbours, relieved by the arrests, reported that crime in the area had shot up in the six months since the gambling operation started.
On Wednesday afternoon, police also closed down what they described as another illegal gambling operation close to this one in Fullerton. They said it is not clear how long the businesses will be closed since the investigation is ongoing.
