Altercation at Cheyenne-Arapaho headquarters

Thursday, September 6, 2007  

The disputed leader of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma says he was punched in a brawl outside the tribal headquarters on Wednesday.

The Bureau of Indian Affairs had to break up the altercation. Darrell Flyingman says a woman was injured in the fight.

Flyingman says he remains governor of the tribe. But opponents say he is no longer their leader, citing a recall election that he lost. Flyingman says the recall process was invalid.
