Police Find Illegal Gambling Operation Disguised As Pizza Joint
SANTA ANA (CBSLA) — Santa Ana Police busted an illegal gambling den disguised as a pizza joint on Thursday.
Sheila Radwanski, a neighboring business owner, says she is relieved.
"I had many customers came here told me they don't want to come here anymore," Radwanski said. "Because it's...not a family oriented place anymore."
Ever since Uno Free Pizza moved in a year ago, all the neighboring businesses took a nose dive.
Police say the shop owners weren't selling pizza, but a chance to play arcade machines for money.
Police arrested one man for running the gambling establishment and detained sixteen others.
