Standoff at Gresham

An unidentified member of the Wisconsin State Patrol points his revolver at several Native Americans at a vehicle checkpoint near Gresham. The State Patrol and the Wisconsin National Guard were present because members of the Menominee Warrior Society had seized the Alexian property at Gresham. Ultimately this incident led to the arrest of the occupants of the vehicle. |
