eliminate prostitution in the Southwest

Officers executed a search warrant at

Blacksburg last week.

Police allege Edwin Park was running
an illegal gambling operation out of

his apartment.

According to the search warrant, the
game was running almost nightly -- and
thousands of dollars were being
exchanged.

The investigation reveals the house
reserved the right to a minimal take of
10-percent each hand.

A computer kept track of
the players and how much money they
were spending.

The person who answered the
apartment door yesterday, said Park is
his roomate.

A man who claimed to be Park,
