In the same video, she picks up a metal stand and throws it. She also later spit on an employee, witnesses claimed.
Police were called to the scene. Witnesses reportedly told officers the girl seen in the video had become upset because staff would not issue her a refund when some of the machines ate her money.
Another teenager reportedly set off fireworks inside the building, causing damage to the interior.
The family park is working with authorities to identify those involved.
Due to the destructive incident, the center has updated its policy, banning all minors from visiting without parent supervision.
