A 44-year-old man surnamed Cheng (鄭) … wasted his son’s NT$5,000 (US$161) school tuition in a crane game arcade in the area. In an attempt to recoup the lost school fees, Cheng enlisted the help of a 22-year old coworker surnamed Kuo (郭) to rob the change machine at a new claw machine arcade, which did not yet have surveillance cameras.

When police arrived on the scene, they found that the padlocks on the change machine had been damaged and they spotted Cheng and Kuo counting large quantities of coins.

You count your loot first, getaway can wait!
