Federal judge intervenes in Northern California tribal dispute
The federal government is stepping into a bitter feud between warring factions of a Northern California Indian tribe.
A rift within the Paskenta band of the Nomlaki tribe over who controls the tribe, its casino, and its casino profits, came to a head this month when both sides hired armed guards to either defend or take over the tribe's Rolling Hills Casino in Corning, California. Now a federal judge has intervened with a temporary restraining order banning guns on casino grounds.
Reporter Stephen Magagnini has been covering the story for the Sacramento Bee and joins Take Two for the latest.
