Fresno Casino Security Guard Attacked by Homeless Man, Suspect Arrested
In Fresno, a security guard at Club One Casino was hurt Saturday morning in an encounter with an unhoused man, reported The Fresno Bee. The incident happened around 9:50 a.m. when the man tried to enter the casino located at 3950 N. Cedar Avenue, according to Lt. Tim Tietjen with Fresno Police Department. When the individual was denied entry he attempted to force his way in which caused the guard to step in.
The suspect allegedly hit the security officer with a metal object causing head injuries. Despite this attack, said staff member managed to call the police who arrived quickly and detained the attacker.
The assaulter is currently facing charges for attacking with a weapon that is capable of causing death. According to Lt. Tietjen, the security officer is expected to get better, and all of what happened was recorded by surveillance cameras.
Man Fatally Shot in Argument Gone Wrong Near Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma
In Tacoma, a man was killed on July 15 in a shooting near Emerald Queen Casino, according to the police. The incident happened around 8 p.m. near the employee parking lot of the casino located at 2024 E. 28th Street, said Sgt. William Muse with Tacoma Police Department, as reported by Komo News.
Muse explained that what they currently know is that it started out as an argument between two acquaintances who then followed each other in cars until they ended up near the casino area where things escalated further.
Gunfire erupted following an argument, upon them arriving at the spot. Officers found a man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Despite efforts by police and firefighters to perform CPR, the victim succumbed to his injuries before reaching the hospital.
Sgt. Muse said that there is a suspect in this case who came forward and is currently cooperating with the assigned detectives, although he remains out of custody for the time being. The suspect, represented by an attorney, gave his side of what happened leading up to the disagreement.
Muse noted that police do not believe this incident to be a case of road rage and are considering the possibility of self-defense. It remains unclear if the victim was armed.
Another recent incident saw authorities in Pueblo, Colorado, conducting a raid on several illegal gambling establishments, seizing $20,000 in cash and 62 gambling machines. This operation, supported by Mayor Heather Graham, aligns with her efforts to combat crime in the city and enforce a new ordinance targeting unlicensed gambling activities.
