State seizes 87 illegal slot machines in Fremont, Findlay

FREMONT — An investigation into illegal gambling resulted in the seizure of 28 slot machines at a business in Fremont. Players Circle, 1306 Oak Harbor Rd., was searched by the Ohio Casino Control Commission and Fremont police as part of an illegal gambling investigation. Officials said the investigation began after receiving complaints that the business was operating gaming machines in violation of Ohio law. “It has been consistently demonstrated that illegal gambling harms communities, undermines public safety, and negatively impacts the Ohioans who live in them,” said Andromeda Morrison, the commission’s interim executive director. “Shutting down this illegal gambling site will prevent further harm to the community. “Our enforcement efforts remain focused on rooting out illegal gambling operations and will continue collaborating with our law enforcement partners to uphold the integrity of gaming in Ohio,” she said. Investigators also seized an undisclosed amount of money. The seizure comes on the heels of a search last week in Findlay. In that instance, commission officials and local police searched the Bank at 2720 N. Main St. They seized 59 suspected illegal slot machines along with an undisclosed amount of money, officials said.

Fremont mayor critical of court's leniency of man who threatened him

FREMONT – Judge number three took the bench at the Fremont Municipal Court Nov. 3 in the case of the man who left a threatening voicemail for Fremont Mayor Danny Sanchez . The man who said Sanchez was on a hit list paced back and forth outside the courtroom door, periodically sitting on the bench with victims and other offenders. His sentencing for aggravated menacing and telecommunications harassment, both first-degree misdemeanors, was to take place Nov. 3. The man pleaded guilty to the charges Sept. 15. Sentencing was delayed for at least 30 days for a previously ordered pre-sentence investigation. The probation department that conducts them was not informed of the court order, so did not conduct the investigation. Under Marsy’s Law, also known as the Ohio Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights, the probation officers include a victim’s impact statement outlining how the crime affected the victim's life. Meanwhile, an increasingly irritated Sanchez stood outside the courthouse giving a laundry list of problems with the case and argued some probable violations of Marsy's Law occurred. “I don’t think I’ve been represented fairly in this case as a victim,” Sanchez said. “I don’t feel I deserve any special treatment, but I

BGSU men’s basketball shoots past Cleveland State for home-opening win

BOWLING GREEN — In front of a home crowd for the first time this season, the Bowling Green State University men’s basketball team defeated Cleveland State 95-79 while shooting 60 percent from the floor. That efficiency was especially on display at the 3-point line, where Bowling Green finished 14-for-28. Three different players had two or more makes from deep. Junior guard Josiah Shackelford did most of the damage, scoring 25 points on 6-for-9 shooting from beyond the arc. “A majority of our threes came in pretty good, created situations,” BGSU coach Todd Simon said. “That’s how you get 19 assists on 33 shots. For us, at one point in the huddle, we were like, ‘We’re in the bonus, let’s really take it inside.’ At that point, we were shooting like 55 [percent] from three, and I was like, ‘You might want to still keep shooting those.’ But, we have tremendous shooters. This is what they do in practice.” After an early exchange, Bowling Green gained a lead with 17:21 left in the first half and never looked back. Cleveland State (1-2) also shot efficiently, finishing at 60.8 percent. Simon said allowing that number didn’t meet the team’s defensive standard. BGSU
