California tribe offers $100K reward for arson hit


The Jackson Rancheria Band of Miwuk Indians is offering a $100,000 reward for information about the arson of a tribally-owned apartment complex.

The Earth Liberation Front, a radical environmental group, claimed responsibility for Monday's fire. Seven firebombs were planted at the 110-unit Sutter Creek apartment complex.

The tribe doesn't think the arson is related to its casino. "It's a slap in the face to the tribe because they worked so hard from an environmental standpoint to put this project together," a spokesman told The Sacramento Bee.
