Over 450 guns and more than $4,000 were seized during an investigation into an alleged illegal gambling operation in Tucson.
The investigation by the Arizona Department of Gaming and Arizona Department of Public Safety resulted in the arrest of two unidentified individuals. They both face multiple felony charges, according to the Gaming Department.
The agencies seized 452 guns, ammunition, firearm accessories, more than $4,000 in cash and bank accounts after concluding their investigation into alleged illegal gun raffles on Oct. 30.
“Record-breaking seizures like this only further highlight the criminal activity that illegal gambling establishments attract when they go unregulated, posing a significant threat to public safety,” said Jackie Johnson, director of the Arizona Department of Gaming.
