Gila River Tribe breaks ground on new casino

The Gila River Indian Community of Arizona broke ground on a new casino on Monday.

The tribe is moving the Lone Butte Casino to a new location and is making it bigger. The $60 million, 120,000-square-foot facility sits on a 40-acre site in the tribe's Lone Butte Industrial Park.

The new casino is expected to open in late 2008.
