TALLAHASSEE – Last week, law enforcement agents with the Florida Lottery’s Division of Security conducted 69 compliance checks as part of its ongoing Operation Integrity efforts. Operations were conducted in Clay, Duval, Flagler, Nassau, and St. Johns counties.
One arrest was made at Sunshine Express, located at 1595 Island Lane in Fleming Island. The store clerk arrested was charged with Grand Theft (violation of section 812.014 (2)(c)(1), Florida Statutes).
Security compliance checks are part of the Lottery’s ongoing effort to heighten awareness around security and to combat illegal activity. The Florida Lottery has zero tolerance for fraudulent activity by players or retailers.
The Florida Lottery’s Division of Security works to identify and take action against criminal behavior involving its retailers. If you notice any suspicious activity involving a Lottery retailer or your Lottery purchase, contact the Lottery’s Division of Security immediately at (850) 487-7730.
