The unnamed suspect, a 25-year-old Durand, Michigan, resident, was being carried out of the gaming property.<\/p>\n

The drunken man was getting assisted by casino security guards and two good Samaritans. But he was difficult to carry and had repeatedly fallen to the floor.<\/p>\n

Michigan state troopers were on patrol and spotted the visitor in the lobby, according to MLive, a regional news site.<\/p>\n

\n

The troopers took over and began carrying the man at about 2 a.m. to a nearby hotel where he had rented a room. Along the way, he \u201cintentionally headbutted one of the troopers in the face,\u201d according to an arrest report.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The troopers charged the suspect, but he was so intoxicated<\/a> he was first taken to Detroit Receiving Hospital.<\/p>\n

After it was medically safe to move him, he was transported to the Detroit Detention Center.<\/p>\n

$300K Cheating Scheme Leads to Arrests<\/h2>\n

Four suspects were charged last week after a baccarat cheating plot at Pennsylvania\u2019s Wind Creek Bethlehem Casino<\/a>. The players were able to cheat the gaming property out of about $300K, authorities revealed.<\/p>\n

The four suspects were identified as Zu Lin, 37, Yuhan Hu, 28, Liping Zhou, 51, and Zhencan Chen, 33. Each of the four, who are from Illinois, was arrested on a corrupt organization charge.<\/p>\n

Two other suspects in the scheme were identified as Fuxiang Liu, 50, and Qingyong Zhang, 38, who is the suspected ringleader. Their addresses were not immediately known.<\/p>\n

The cheating allegedly involved Zhang, who employed card and body positioning. Zhang also thumbed card corners and used a cell phone to cheat, police said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the deck was favorable, Zhang allegedly signaled his partners to increase their bets, according to LehighValleyLive.com, a regional news site. Each of the players won on six hands, police said.<\/p>\n

After winning, four of the suspects began to play different games while Zhang and Liu left the casino. Hu later told police Zhang had given him $5K in exchange for taking part in the plot, authorities said.<\/p>\n

Money won while taking part in the scheme went to Zhang, police said.<\/p>\n

Lin, Hu, and Chen each posted a $100K bond and were released from custody. Zhou remained in Pennsylvania\u2019s Northampton County Prison. Authorities were seeking Liu and Zhang as of late last week.<\/p>\n

It was revealed that Hu and Zhou took part in casino schemes in other states, police said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
