PITTSBURGH -- The district attorney is making it harder for illegal gambling to take place in Allegheny County.
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported that 400 video poker machines were confiscated during raids throughout the week.
State, local, county police and the liquor control board said they are targeting organized criminal activity, but have not made any arrests in connection with the poker machines.
Giving payouts on video poker play is a misdemeanor in Pennsylvania.
