Arson suspected in northern MN tribal HQ fire

A reward is being offered for information about a suspected arson that destroyed the Bois Forte Tribal Headquarters in northern Minnesota.

The Bois Forte Tribal Council says a preliminary analysis indicates that the early Monday fire was arson.

Tribal leaders say the fire was ignited in two separate places in the building, indicating the fire was set.

A reward fund of $14,000 has been set up for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever set the fire.
