LEBANON, Ind. -- Police in Lebanon raided what they described as an an illegal home casino Monday.
The home in the rural area about 25 miles northwest of Indianapolis was rented by 27-year-old Matthew Tierney, police said.
Police said they raided the house during a drug investigation, but instead, found casino-quality craps and blackjack tables, a roulette wheel, cases of playing cards and casino chips.
Investigators estimated that the gambling area could hold 20 to 30 patrons.
Police said the house also had a full bar, a surveillance system and nine beds that led one investigator to call it a "gambling bed and breakfast."
Police said they also found 24 large marijuana plants.
Tierney was taken to the Boone County jail on gambling and drug charges.
