On May 19, 2026, at 6:30 p.m., HPD executed a search warrant on an illegal gambling-type game room on Algaroba Street in McCully, resulting in the arrest of one individual and the seizure of multiple gaming machines and cash.

HPD’s Narco/Vice Gambling Detail, with the assistance of the District 3 and District 7 Crime Reduction Units, Forfeiture Detail and Specialized Services Division, recovered 18 gaming machines and more than $11,000 in cash.

During the course of the execution, HPD arrested a 60-year-old male for Promoting Gambling in the Second Degree and Possession of a Gambling Device. HPD arrested the person without incident.

“The McCully operation is the 16th illegal gambling search warrant executed so far in 2026 and the third in the month of May,” said Maj. Jerome Pacarro of the Narcotics/Vice Division. “By halting these illegal operations, we can prevent associated criminal elements from impacting surrounding communities.”

HPD remains committed to addressing illegal gambling operations that negatively impact the safety and quality of life in our communities.
