Oneida Nation: Avoid main casino due to active shooter situation
WBAY ^ | May. 1, 2021 at 6:04 PM PDT

Community members are asked to avoid the Main Casino on Highway 172.

Max Westphal, of Brownsville, was at the casino when the shooting started.

"So, we were sitting in the casino, and it came over the loudspeaker that we had to evacuate. And, we literally thought it was a joke because we didn’t hear anything. We thought there was maybe a small fire. So, we got in an argument with the dealer to pay us out for what she owed us from the prior hand.... We get shuttled outside, we walk outside, and we’re still joking around about it, and all of a sudden we hear a massive flurry of gunshots, 20 - 30 gunshots for sure.” said Westphal. “So we took off running toward the highway. Got out there and uh I mean that’s pretty much it that’s all we heard. There was cops... there had to have been 50 cops cars that came by on the highway, it was honestly insane. It was crazy.”

Maybe Kevin Costner can ride in and calm things down.

I guess it’s OK to still use the minor parts of the casino.

The headline made me think this was here in Oneida, New York where the Oneida Nation has their main casino, Turning Stone. They’ve got a few smaller ones too. It wasn’t until I clicked on the link that I learned this was in Wisconsin.

>> Avoid main casino due to active shooter situation

The adjacent areas with the Quarter slot machines are perfectly safe. Free drinks too!

I knew it was Wisconsin immediately, for that is my tribe.

Thankfully I'm in Minnesota. (can't believe I just said that)

Some guy who lost his home at a casino just might hold it responsible.

"Ouch. My bad."

LOL!! Not at all. I assumed something based on an article title :-)

I can picture it. Running the risk of eating a bullet, and someone has to get all bent because they had $20 out and a full house with kings high on the table.
