FORT APACHE, AZ—On May 15, 2018, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, partnered with ATF, DEA, BIA, state, and local partners, to execute 34 federal and state arrest warrants on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation.
The executed warrants included federal charges for narcotics trafficking, assault, rape, sexual assault, domestic violence, and violations of supervised release/probation. State charges include felony failure to appear and probation violations stemming from assault, DUI, sexual assault, and narcotics trafficking.
“The FBI, along with our law enforcement partners, will continue to identify, pursue, and apprehend fugitives from justice. These arrests send a strong message that you cannot hide on Arizona’s Indian Reservations in order to avoid criminal charges,” according to FBI Special Agent in Charge Michael DeLeon.
