Police raided illegal Oakland casino seizing cash and hard drugs

Authorities reported that they had seized thousands of dollars in cash and nine gaming machines during yet another raid by local police on a suspected covert casino.

Approximately 25 pounds of marijuana and 40 pounds of psychedelic mushrooms were also discovered by authorities, along with ammunition and receipts linked to alleged illegal gambling. There were reportedly about $3,000 in cash found during the raid.


Raids at alleged illegal casinos in Oakland appear to occur periodically, frequently following acts of violence, and a large number of the underground gaming dens have been situated in residential areas.
