Marshall serves temporary restraining orders against five gambling facilities in Selma

Attorney General Steve Marshall has served temporary restraining orders against five gambling facilities in Selma.

Marshall says the illegal facilities must cease all operations, the property cannot be used or accessed, and there can be no further financial transactions connected with the facility or those operating the facility until further orders from the Circuit Court of Dallas County.

Marshall executed six search warrants at each of the gambling facilities as part of an ongoing criminal investigation.

“These facilities are operating with complete disregard to Alabama law. I applaud Dallas County Sheriff Granthum’s dedication to combat this blight, and willingness to invite our team to assist in addressing these criminal enterprises,” Marshall said in a statement.

“The law is clear; gambling is illegal in Alabama and the Attorney General’s Office will continue to enforce the laws of this state.”

These are the locations involved:

Joker 777
1391 E. Highland Ave, Ste 114

Mini Bingo
113 Dallas Avenue

Selma Charity Bingo
1824 Hwy 14E

Selma Bingo
1 Hickory Road

Lucky Duck

In addition, a location on Lewis Street had a search warrant conducted.
