By Troopers raid Greenetrack casino seize bingo machines
Eutaw, Ala – - The governor's gambling task force has
seized hundreds of electronic bingo machines at the Greenetrack
casino after an Alabama Supreme Court ruling clear the way for it
to act.
Gov. Bob Riley's office said 10 state troopers and liquor
control agents entered the casino Tuesday and took control of the
machines that the task force considers illegal.
The seizure took place after the Alabama Supreme Court struck
down a Greene County circuit judge's order that had barred a raid
of the casino. The judge's order had sought to protect more than
800 bingo machines at Greenetrack.
The task force says they may be removed.
