The impact of gangs operating in Amador County took a sudden and shocking turn at 5am (Sunday) morning, when a confrontation at the Jackson Rancheria Casino led to one teenager getting shot in the neck and another getting shot in the face.
The Amador County Sheriff’s Office learned of the gun play almost immediately after it happened. Deputies rushed to the scene and discovered two young, Hispanic men bleeding amidst the shot machines and lights. Each had been hit with pistol fire at close range.
