Par-A-Dice Ordered To Shut Down Gambling For 2 Weeks

The Par-A-Dice and Illinois' nine other casinos will shut off the gaming machines for 14 days in an effort to contain the coronavirus.

The Illinois Gaming Board issued the order Friday. It goes into effect Monday, March 16.

It wasn't immediately clear if the Par-A-Dice Hotel and restaurants were also impacted by the order.
