"Bexar County deputies say they've dismantled what they believe was an illegal gambling operation on San Antonio's North Side, arresting three people and detaining eight others during a coordinated raid."
"When deputies entered the building, they say they found a substantial gambling setup, seizing about 50 machines. That volume matters."
"Officials described the machines as the type commonly seen in so-called 'eight-liner' operations, which have long existed in a legal gray area in Texas."
"The organized crime charge indicates that authorities believe the case reflects a coordinated effort rather than an isolated activity."
