Show me the Money!

Just minutes after he won 10-thousand dollars at Harrah's Atlantic City casino over the weekend, John April collapsed and died of a heart attack. Now, the Philadelphia man's widow wants to know how his winnings disappeared somewhere between the casino and the hospital.

April was playing a slot machine when he won the prize around 11 p.m. Friday. After cashing in his winnings, he went to tell his wife, Georgene, who was in a nearby lounge.

He collapsed before he could tell her, and she was unaware he had won until she found the cashier's receipt two days later.

The casino says it will replace a 5-thousand dollar check that was part of the winnings but will not replace the missing cash.
