BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Police and Seneca Indian Nation officials continue to investigate a fight at a tribal casino that left a New York state senator with bruised ribs and his wife with a concussion.
Sen. Mark Grisanti says he was trying to diffuse an argument between two men at the Seneca Niagara Casino Friday night when he was punched in the chest and head. His wife, Maria, says she was attacked by two women who slammed her head on the floor.
Niagara Falls Police Capt. William Thomson says Monday that investigators are asking for statements from those involved. He says Grisanti hasn't been in yet.
No one's been charged.
A spokesman says the Seneca Gaming Corp. is conducting its own review of the incident, at least part of which was caught on videotape.
