Five arrests have been made after a “lengthy investigation” into allegations that a table games dealer at Woodbine Casino in Toronto was “in collusion” with patrons, police say.

Ontario Provincial Police announced the arrests in a news release Tuesday.

The OPP said the Investigation and Enforcement Bureau attached to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario was contacted on Oct. 19 regarding allegations that a dealer was colluding with patrons at Woodbine.

Etobicoke resident Arthur Segovia, 52, has since been charged with criminal breach of trust, cheat at play, theft over $5,000 and fraud over $5,000.
