Minnesota Tribe Fights County for More Police Power

MINNEAPOLIS (CN) – The Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe claims in court that a Minnesota county is violating federal law by preventing its tribal law enforcement body from using police powers on its reservation.

The tribe, Mille Lacs Band Chief of Police Sara Rice and Sgt. Derrick Naumann say in a lawsuit filed Friday in Minneapolis federal court that they were threatened with arrest and prosecution by Mille Lacs County if they exercised their right to police the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe reservation.
