Yavapai-Prescott Tribe addresses security issue at casino

The Yavapai-Prescott Tribe temporarily closed one of its casinos in Arizona in order to address a security issue.

The Yavapai Casino closed on Monday for some "technical service updates," a post on Facebook read. The general manager told The Prescott Daily Courier that there was a problem with the surveillance cameras at the facility.

“That’s a big deal for us, so we had to ask everyone to leave,” Steve Rosene told the paper.

To accommodate patrons, they were taken across the street to Bucky’s Casino, the tribe's other gaming facility.

The Yavapai Casino, meanwhile, is expected to reopen on Tuesday.
