The second person had in his possession possible marijuana and a firearm, Texas TV station KSAT<\/em> reported.\u00a0Several gaming machines were also seized in the search, according to Texas TV station KTSA<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n

Initially, no one answered when sheriff\u2019s deputies knocked on the door armed with a search warrant. They later forced open the door and, once inside, they saw some 10 people playing slot machines, KTSA<\/em> reported.\u00a0It is unclear if they will be charged.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The charges on the two apprehended suspects were not immediately known.<\/p>\n

The gambling operation was the subject of several civilian complaints to the sheriff\u2019s office before deputies sought the search warrant.<\/p>\n

Hard Rock Northern Indiana Robbery<\/h2>\n

A man was arrested on May 12, a day after he allegedly robbed about $500 from a blackjack winner in the parking lot at the Hard Rock Casino North Indiana<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The victim was walking to his car when another car pulled up behind him. An armed suspect exited the second car and demanded the victim\u2019s cash.<\/p>\n

It turns out the suspect was tailing the victim inside the casino and saw him cash in his chips, according to the Chicago Tribune<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The suspect was later identified as Anthony A. Odneal of Riverdale, Ill. He was apprehended and charged with armed robbery — taking property by force or threatening use of force.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Odneal appeared in local court before Magistrate Kathleen O\u2019Sullivan last week and was booked at the Lake County Jail. His bond was set at $40K.<\/p>\n

Man Allegedly Assaults EMT, Police Officer at Casino<\/h2>\n

An intoxicated man allegedly resisted arrest in a May 14 incident in the parking lot of the WarHorse Casino in Lincoln, Neb.<\/p>\n

\n

The suspect, Zachary Krull, 32, was apprehended and restrained after he allegedly shoved one Lincoln Fire & Rescue emergency responder and attempted to punch another one, according to Nebraska<\/a> TV station KFOR<\/em>. Krull then allegedly kicked a police officer in the face and chest as officers tried to place him in a cruiser.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Krull was booked for three counts of assault on an officer\/health care professional, as well as resisting arrest, according to Nebraska TV station KOLN<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Canadian Denied His Expected Jackpot<\/h2>\n

A Canadian man filed a lawsuit after he claimed he was not given a $220,550 jackpot while playing an internet casino game that is registered in Argentina, according to a recent report.<\/p>\n

Victor Janicki of Kelowna, British Columbia, a retired attorney, filed the legal action in British Columbia Supreme Court. He claims he made a side bet while playing blackjack on February 23 on BetOnline.ag\u2019s BJ Classic Game, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Janicki was dealt two 7s of diamonds. He became eligible for a jackpot but his screen blackened for several seconds. When it reappeared, Janicki saw two online employees who told him he won a jackpot and congratulated him.<\/p>\n

Later, casino staff told him he never won the money. In early April, Janicki was sent a recreation of what happened in the game, though he dispute the casino’s version of events.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Janicki filed the legal action in an effort to collect the money. A judge may release a directed verdict in the case sometime next month, the Review-Journal<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n

The news organization could not reach BetOnline.ag for comment on the litigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
