PLAINS TWP.<\/p>\n
A 53-year-old man faces charges after police said returned to Mohegan Pennsylvania on Thursday after being banned earlier in the day and refusing to leave.<\/p>\n
When an officer from Pennsylvania State Police Bureau of Gaming Enforcement and Plains Twp. Police responded to the casino floor around 1:40 p.m., Edward Froncek attempted to strike an officer and actively resisted while being taken into custody, state police said.<\/p>\n
Police charged Froncek with aggravated assault, simple assault, harassment, resisting arrest, providing false identification to law enforcement, disorderly conduct, and defiant trespass.<\/p>\n
As of Friday, Froncek remained at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility in lieu of $5,000 bail.
