The chairman of the Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut said the tribe won't work with a developer seeking to build an entertainment theme park near the tribe's casino.

Utopia Studios of New York wants to build on a former hospital site that is owned by the state. The company's chief executive officer is accusing the tribe of holding up the deal.

Chairman Mark Brown and his chief of staff took offense at the suggestion. The tribe was once interested in the property but withdrew a proposal years ago.
