(WBRE/WYOU) — The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board announced 11 people have been banned from Pennsylvania casinos and online gambling after going against various laws.
The Board placed 11 people on the Involuntary Casino Exclusion List, including three adults who left minors unattended while gambling in a Pennsylvania casino:
A man and woman who together left two children, ages 11 and 12, in a vehicle in the parking lot of Hollywood Casino Morgantown for 32 minutes while they gambled on slot machines and in the sportsbook
A woman who left three children, ages 2,6, and 12, in a vehicle in the parking lot of Hollywood Casino York for 29 minutes while she gambled on slot machines and at table games.

The board says denying gambling privileges serves as a reminder that adults are prohibited from leaving minors unattended, since it creates an unsafe environment for the children.
Being placed on an Involuntary Exclusion List prohibits people from either gaming in a casino in Pennsylvania, via an online betting site regulated by the Board, or at a Video Gaming Terminal location.
These banings raise the number of individuals now on the Board’s various Involuntary Exclusion Lists to 1,448.
Information about both the PGCB’s gaming regulatory efforts and Pennsylvania’s gaming industry can be found at the PA Gaming Board website.
