On Tuesday, the Michigan Gaming Control Board disclosed that alleged Flint area storefront casinos were targeted in a pair of raids, resulting in the seizure of approximately $30,000 and 100 gambling devices.

On Wednesday, April 27th, The State Road Spot in Davison and The Bristol Spot in Burton were the locations of the raids. These actions were the result of a collaborative investigation conducted by the MGCB and the Michigan Department of Attorney General.

In a statement, MGCB Executive Director Henry Williams emphasized that illegal gambling machine operations not only introduce crime into Michigan communities but also deprive school districts of much-needed gaming tax revenue, which is vital for supporting education. Williams further highlighted the efforts of MGCB in educating citizens and businesses about the consequences of illegal gambling while lending support to state and local officials in their endeavors to eliminate illegally used machines.

The investigation into The Bristol Spot, situated at 1374 East Bristol Road in Burton, was initiated following a tip. This subsequently led to the uncovering of an associated establishment known as The State Road Spot, located at 723 South State Road in Davison.

At The Bristol Spot, investigators confiscated a total of 12 full-size standalone gaming machines and 23 gaming computer towers. Additionally, the State Road Spot had 11 standalone gaming machines and 54 gaming computer towers.

Additionally, they confiscated a sum of $29,204 believed to be derived from gambling activities, as well as 62 gift cards.

Michigan citizens are urged by the MGCB to utilize their 24-hour anonymous tip line at (888) 314-2682 to report any suspicious or illegal gambling activity. Additionally, the MGCB website offers fact sheets regarding Michigan law and unregulated machines utilized for unlawful gambling.

Michigan cracking down on illegal gaming operations

The MGCB and Attorney General have already conducted raids earlier this year.

In March, authorities conducted raids on two suspected Lansing storefront casinos, resulting in the seizure of over 80 illegal machines and a total of $91,000.

Despite the flourishing legal industry in Michigan, illicit gaming operations continue to persist. Michigan is home to 26 physical casinos and 15 online sportsbooks and casinos, yet illegal gambling activities remain prevalent.

The issue at hand extends beyond the boundaries of Michigan alone. In a recent letter, the American Gaming Association fervently called upon the US Department of Justice to adopt more robust measures against illicit gaming operators.

According to the AGA, illegal operations pose a danger to both consumers and government entities due to potential loss of tax revenue. The AGA also recognizes the financial incentive its members have in eradicating such operators.
