Comment this articleWave of casino robberies sweep Estonia
A masked man carrying what appeared to be a handgun entered a gaming hall in the Mustamae district of Tallinn at 5:12 a.m. on Tuesday and made off with more than 1,000 euros in cash.
About 20 casino robberies have been committed in different parts of Estonia over the past few months, with police having little success in solving them so far.
An armed robbery committed concealing one's face carries 15 years in jail as maximum punishment in Estonia.
