After Tokala Shooting

Update from Floyd Hand
Wednesday, January 26, 2000

PINE RIDGE INDIAN RESERVATION, SD - The Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate met at 2:00 AM after a Tokala was shot. The Tokala had left the perimeter without permission after receiving strict orders not to leave his post. The Tokala will be dealt with by leaders of the Tokala Society (Kit Fox Warrior Society) upon his return.
Therefore we respect our fellow brothers and to call a standby alert due to the fact that we have elders, children and handicapped persons in the tribal building.
Presently, the situation is under control and we'll update all out information as we continue to monitor the building.
Mitakuye Oyasin,
/S/ IN UNITY, FLOYD HAND
