William Andrews, 59, is accused of three cars in a casino parking lot and leaving the scene. The incident allegedly occurred after he spent "several hours in a casino lounge" with American Indian Movement activist Russell Means, the paper said.
State police arrested Andrews and he was charged with driving under the influence and evading responsibility. As part of his reprimand from the elders' council, he agreed to pay $1,000 to support the tribe's Sober House
