Castillo - who was seen wearing a blue and yellow striped shirt with jeans, sneakers and a pink baseball cap - then grabs fistfuls of chips, and starts hurling them into the air - much to the chagrin of casino employees who have surrounded her.
One such employee could be seen trying to grab her arm, but she leaned over him and flung even more casino chips as security guards started to arrive.
A guard then seemed to have grabbed Castillo by the arms, as someone in the background could be heard saying, 'She's going to jail, she's going to jail.'
