$200K Seized in Gambling Raid

A Kettering, gambling raid led authorities to confiscate more than $200K and several gaming machines on Thursday.

The searches took place in a Kettering internet cafe and a West Carrollton, Ohio residence.

One unnamed suspect was arrested and charged with operating a gambling house, possession of criminal tools, and engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, according to Ohio TV station WDTN.

The court-ordered raids took place after a Kettering Police Department investigation where undercover officers gambled at the location.

Police launched the inquiry after possible illegal gambling and at the locations. The investigation took six months before the raids took place.

Florida Convenience Store Raided

The 207 Express convenience store, located in Hastings, Fla., was raided on Friday due to suspected illegal gambling.

The St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office deputies searched the convenience store in search of gambling-related activities and evidence related to illegal drugs, according to Jacksonville, Fla. TV station WJXT.

It s unclear if incriminating evidence was located during the court-ordered search.

“Although that search warrant was somewhat narrow and focused maybe towards the narcotics and the gambling aspect of this location it’s no surprise that especially the narcotics portion of this goes along with violence,” WJXT analyst Tom Hackney, a former law enforcement officer, reported.
