Local police are making the public aware that they are continuing to crack down on illegal gambling outfits in the city while announcing two warrants served last week. <\/p>\n

Cape Coral Police Department officials said in partnership with the Florida Gaming Control Commission, a pair of search warrants were executed at 808 S.E. 27th Street and 3571 Del Prado Boulevard North, where officers seized what officials say were a total of 139 illegal Vegas-style slot machines and a total of $176,833 in cash. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe want it to be clear: owning and operating these casinos is illegal,\u201d CCPD officials stated in a release. \u201cThe investigation remains active and ongoing, and charges are expected as evidence is reviewed and processed. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe City of Cape Coral has a zero-tolerance policy for these illegal casinos; if they continue to operate, they will be subject to imminent criminal investigation and prosecution.\u201d<\/p>\n
