More than 140 arrested at US cockfight
Law enforcement agents raided an illegal cockfight and arrested 144 people attending what one official said may have been one of the largest such gatherings in the US.
Several Swat teams, helicopters and dozens of state troopers participated in the raid on Saturday on the sprawling Del Rio Cockfight Pit in Newport, Tennessee. They seized about 40,000 dollars in cash and more than 300 roosters.
