A spokesman at the Henry County Sheriff’s Office reported that, search warrants were conducted on 4 Internet Cafe places in the county and one in the city Monday.
Sheriff Lane Perry said that clients at the businesses could get a card for any dollar amount, but he was not aware whether a credit card or some other type of card was being used.
The dollar amount was transformed into “tokens,” which supposedly were for wagering for placing bets on a number of games. Winnings were said to be redeemed in cash.
