On the afternoon of April 17, 2021, the Blood Tribe Police Service located two non-Nation members camping on the north end of the Blood Tribe. Two males were charged with trespassing under the Kainai/Blood Tribe Trespass Bylaw, and removed from the community. An investigation into their activities while on the Blood Tribe is ongoing.
