Raid of Twin Cities woman's home yields thousands of illegal pull-tabs, scratch-offs
MINNEAPOLIS — A Twin Cities woman faces dozens of felony charges after authorities say a raid of her residence yielded thousands of illegal pull tabs, scratch-offs and other games.

Authorities didn't disclose her identity or the location of her residence.
