After a weekend of working furiously through the nights to open up a gambling operation in a trailer parked in a muddy construction zone, the Village of Eklutna says it now has gambling up and running near Peters Creek, in the city of Anchorage. The action was taken quickly to prevent the new Trump Administration from delaying the operation, which is already facing a lawsuit from neighbors who object to the impact on the residential area.
Two trailers pushed together are the casino, and a couple of more on site appear to house 24-hours security guards.
Aaron Leggett, president of the Eklutna Native Village, published a comment on Monday.
