Several social media videos only now going viral show the scene of a bizarre incident at the Silver Legacy Casino in Reno last Saturday, where a woman climbed atop a craps table during live play and threw chips up in the air and at people.
Rebecca Castillo, 63, was arrested on four counts of battery, according to the Reno Police Department.
As several onlookers either stared in shock or shot their own video, Castillo tussled with security officers who attempted to escort her down from the table. She was then allowed to lie down across the table for at least 16 seconds with her hands on her head.
One video of the incident, uploaded to X/Twitter by user @briancommeans on Wednesday, had 215,500 views as of Thursday. Another video, uploaded to TikTok on Wednesday by the account @cbomobfather, has 345,800 views.
A good chunk of the hundreds of comments left beneath the videos note how such behavior wouldn’t have been tolerated in the days when the mafia ran casino floors instead of corporations.
“Robert Dinero waiting for him in the back room,” commented Twitter user @DJCaso, who both misspelled the “Casino” actor’s name and misgendered the perpetrator.
Police didn’t say what, if anything, prompted Castillo’s conniption. Perhaps she will try explaining it to the judge when she appears in court on Thursday for a scheduled sentencing hearing.
