After a ransomware attack earlier this month shut down five Kewadin Casinos, the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians said Tuesday it would reopen this week, starting at noon Wednesday with its Upper Peninsula casino in Sault Ste Marie.
“Some tribal organizations were impacted more severely than others and are still recovering,” Sault Tribe Chairman Austin Lowes said in the announcement. “But we’re fortunate to be able to reopen Kewadin’s doors.”
Lowes apologized to guests, who were unable to visit while the gaming operations were shut down.
