Man Robs Casino to Pay Debts | Dayton News

Daniel Birdseye just got a 52-year sentence for robbing the Hollywood Casino in 2024, armed with a gun and demanding cash—caught on camera. Police tracked him down via drone hiding in a nature conservancy behind the casino, finding his weapon, ammo, and stolen cash still in casino wrappers. His motive?
