OXFORD — The casino under construction in western Maine has hired a general manager.

Casino officials say Jack Sours has moved to Maine to become manager of the casino in Oxford slated to open in late spring or early summer.

Sours most recently was president and general manager of Mountaineer Casino Racetrack and Resort in West Virginia. He began his career at the Isle of Capri Casino in Colorado.

The Oxford casino, which has yet to be named, will have slot machines as well as poker, black jack and other table games.
