The Delaware Tribe of Oklahoma is reportedly interested in opening a casino in New Jersey.

Mahwah President John Roth said the tribe contacted developers in the town. “I was told that the tribe would have applied to have the land declared a reservation, and in an effort to make money for the tribe, had the eventual goal of opening a casino on the Crossroads property," he said at a council meeting, The Mathwah Patch reported.

The tribe's ancestors lived in New Jersey and in the East before being forced to leave.
