Four people are dead and two are wounded after a woman opened fire inside an American Indian tribal headquarters in Modoc County, Alturas Police told the Modoc County Record.
The woman shooter, whose identity hasn't been released, is in custody, officers told the Record in Alturas, which is a two-and-a-half-hour drive northeast of Redding up Highway 299.
Reports of the shooting came in about 3:45 p.m. at the former RISE (Resources for Indian Student Education) building at 300 West First Street, police told the Record.
The Cedarville Rancheria had purchased the building, which became the Cedarville Rancheria Tribal Office and Community Center. The Rancheria was holding a meeting on evicting several residents from its Rancheria, police told the Record.
A woman attending the hearing pulled out a gun and shot four people in the building and a fifth person who tried to flee, police told the Record. The woman then grabbed a butcher knife and stabbed another person after running out of ammunition.
The stabbing victim and one shooting victim have been taken to the hospital, which has been calling outside sources for blood, police told the Record.
Police told the Record that the Department of Justice will aid officers in investigating the shooting.
Cedarville is about 15 miles west of Alturas.

ReplyDeleteAllowing Apartheid acts to occur as "internal tribal matters." Violent acts will occur if Internal Apartheid acts are allowed to continue. the acts that have occurred at Pechanga are inexcusable, ask anyone who sees through the lies told by Macarro. Pushing people around with bullying tactics always come back to the starter. Luiseno Indians never disenrolled each other for any reasons. Never ever!
Butch Murphy and his family are not Luiseno they are adopted and disenrolling true Pechanga Luiseno Indians. Ruth Masela is not Luiseno she was orphaned as a child and the Salas's family took her in. Now with out a birth certificate how is she enrolled. This was the reason the Manuela's were disenrolled. back to Ruth she claims she is related to the levis line with out any documentations. The levis line is Raymond Basques and we all know how Irene forged B.I.A. documentation.
