The FBI isn't commenting on two rapes that were reported on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana.
An FBI agent would not say where on the reservation the alleged crimes occurred or whether there were any suspects in federal or state custody. The agent only said that the FBI and the Bureau of Indian Affairs are investigating.
