(WHTM) – Four men have been banned from Pennsylvania casinos after several children were left unattended during separate incidents.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board says the four men are now on the Involuntary Casino Exclusion list for leaving minors unattended at a casino property.
The board said during one instance, a male patron left an 11-year-old in a vehicle in the parking lot at Hollywood Casino York for 52 minutes while he gambled at slot machines and table games.
In a second case, a man left a 5-year-old in a vehicle in the parking lot at Rivers Casino Philadelphia for 17 minutes while he gambled at table games and the sportsbook.
The third man placed on the list had left a 9-year-old in the parking lot at Rivers Casino Philadelphia for 1 hour and 7 minutes while he gambled at table games and the sportsbook.
The fourth individual left two minors, ages 7 and 12, in a vehicle in the parking lot at Parx Casino for 32 minutes while he gambled at slot machines.
Twelve other individuals were placed on either or both of the Involuntary Casino Exclusion and Involuntary Interactive Exclusion Lists for various actions.
