Located across the Mystic River from Boston in Everett, Massachusetts State Police responded to an incident at the resort operated by Wynn Resorts early Friday morning after a report came in that a person was carrying a weapon on the casino floor. Upon being approached by casino security, the individual allegedly fled, prompting state troopers stationed at the casino to give chase.

The suspect was reportedly able to get to his vehicle, where he drove off at a high rate of speed. As he exited the casino’s premises, police say he struck a state trooper with his vehicle’s side-view mirror.

The troopers involved in the Friday incident are assigned to the state’s Gaming Enforcement Unit. The GEU, a division of the Massachusetts State Police, works with the Massachusetts Gaming Commission’s Investigations and Enforcement Bureau to investigate all possible criminal activity occurring at Encore Boston Harbor, MGM Springfield, and Plainridge Park Casino.
