Four youths arrested in Oakes over slug coin scam
Four youths aged 16 to 20 from La Moure were jailed in Oakes after attempting to pass babbit slug coins at slot machines. The slugs filled nearly every machine until a venders issue exposed the plan. The men, possibly from Groton SD, escaped with help from an ally. Ellendale officials declined counterfeiting charges as the slugs did not imitate real money.
