Manitowoc Herald Times Reporter - Lac Du Flambeau protesters seek corruption probe: "LAC DU FLAMBEAU — Members of the Lac Du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa locked themselves in a tribal center today, refusing to come out until federal officials agree to investigate charges of alleged corruption among tribal leaders.
Tribal police received a report about 1:30 a.m. today that people had entered the William Wildcat Tribal Center without permission, according to the Vilas County Sheriff’s Department.
When tribal police and sheriff’s deputies went to the center, several people chained the doors and glued locks to prevent them from entering, the sheriff’s department said.
The people inside barricaded themselves in an office in the center, telling authorities they intend to complete a religious ceremony at sunrise and resolve the situation peacefully. They said they had tribal elders and children with them."
