Two brothers planned and carried out a knifepoint attack on an arcade, a jury has decided.

Neil and Nathan Sutton raided City Slots in High Street, Chatham, netting themselves £11,000.

Maidstone Crown Court heard while Neil, 39, kept watch, his older brother armed himself with a kitchen knife and held up an arcade worker.

The two wanted the money to buy drugs and 41-year-old Nathan, who had previously admitted the raid, claimed he blew most of it within two days.

The attack in February was caught on CCTV and footage shown to the jury.

Prosecutor Kieran Brand told how Neil had "acted effectively as reconnaissance and lookout" while Nathan went inside and robbed the contents of the safe while holding a female member of staff at knifepoint.

Mr Brand said at 4pm on February 2 victim, Rachel Osborn, was filling up a slot machine at the back of the shop.

The defendant then walked inside wearing a black puffer jacket, black cap and scarf over his face.

She was only able to open one safe and Nathan stuffed his jacket with £10,800 in cash before walking out to where his brother was waiting.

Neil was convicted of robbery by a majority verdict and the duo, of Shipwrights Avenue, Chatham, will now be sentenced on September 4.
