Sometimes fate just takes a hand. Police in Bochum Germany spotted a man playing a one armed bandit in a arcade, and realised that he was wanted with a warrant out for his arrest, because of €710 in unpaid fines. He faced a 71 day prison term if he failed to pay up, so they moved in to handcuff him.

But as they detained him, the fruit machine paid out the jackpot of €1,000 so the man paid his outstanding fine in full on the spot and was released.
