N.M. police block tribal bingo parlor from operating; feds warn against opening facil
By Barry Massey
Santa Fe, New Mexico (AP) A phalanx of law enforcement officers massed Feb. 27 near a budding high-stakes bingo parlor in southern New Mexico that Gov. Bill Richardson and federal officials say is an illegal casino. Oklahoma’s Fort Sill Apache Tribe built the bingo parlor on a 30-acre site along Interstate 10 in Akela, west of Las Cruces. The governor’s office says bingo or any other gambling there would be illegal, and that the tribe had agreed not to conduct such operations there when the land was taken into federal trust in 2002. |
