Joseph Naugle, a 22-year-old employee, was arrested following a stabbing attack at the Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln, California. The incident occurred on the evening of Wednesday, August 19, within the kitchen area of the Dos Coyotes Border Cafe.

No guests were injured during the incident, and the casino remained open following the attack.
