Owners of Arkansas businesses nabbed for illegal gambling

The police has issued warrant to the owners of two Batesville (Arkansas) businesses for running illegal gambling business.

A news release from the Batesville Police Department states two separate warrants were executed simultaneously on Tuesday.

Police state the warrants were the result of “numerous complaints of illegal gambling taking place inside the businesses.”

During the investigation, two undercover Batesville officers went into the businesses and played on electronic gaming devices that provided “cash money for their winnings.”
