WALKER COUNTY, AL (WBRC) -

There are still no arrests after Walker County authorities seized nearly 60 gambling machines at three different locations. The busts happened in Sumiton, Nauvoo and Eldridge.

Walker County District Attorney Bill Adair says he is hoping to send a message to people allegedly operating illegal bingo halls.

"There'll be a court case in the next 30 to 60 days where we'll present the paraphernalia to see if they're in violation of Alabama's gaming statutes," said Adair.

The paraphernalia Adair is talking about includes the machines, a vehicle and some electronic devices.
