In the US, reports of a fire at a warehouse in Swansea, South Carolina, led to the discovery of hundreds of illegal gaming machines.
According to state authorities, over 700 machines were found in the facility, where it is believed they were stored and repaired.
Investigators think the machines – which are similar to ones that have been seized from convenience stores and other locations in the state – were destined for North Carolina and Alabama after finding permits for those neighbouring states on several of the machines.
An investigation into the source of the machines is under way.
