Florida police raid four illegal bolita gambling establishments

When Florida authorities searched four illegal gaming establishments in Port St. Lucie earlier this month, they detained five suspects.

As per the police, every lawful enterprise operated illicit bolita games. Bolita means "small ball" in Spanish.

Historically, Florida and Cuba have enjoyed great popularity from these games, which are a type of lottery. According to local police, there was no connection between the game and the government-run lottery, even though the winning numbers in these operations corresponded with the New York State Lottery.
