WACO - A Waco man is out on bond after being arrested for robbing a bingo hall. Jeffrey Allen Pickens, 32, is charged with robbery and bodily injury. Pickens is accused of robbing the Redman Bingo Hall of October 26th.

According to police, security personal watching survellance camera's noticed two men with a pair of bolt cutters cutting chains and stealing coins from slot machines.

Security officials tried to to prevent their escape by locking the back door to the casino. That's when Pickens, apparently, elbowed the guard in the mouth to gain entry to the back door. Picken is currently out of jail on $12,500 bond.
