FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP)-The Navajo Nation has purchased a $5.2 million plot of land in northern Arizona that could develop into a casino or gaming facility aimed at increasing business and drawing people to other Navajo property.

The Arizona Daily Sun reports that the Navajo Nation Gaming Enterprise announced its 14-acre purchase including Horseman Lodge Steakhouse intended to direct more restaurant businesses and passersby to the Navajo Nation, especially at Twin Arrows Casino Resort east of Flagstaff.

Navajo Gaming officials say there are no immediate plans to build a casino or gaming facility on the property, which would require land status changes approved by federal and state agencies.
