Two Minneapolis police officers are on paid administrative leave pending an investigation into allegations of police misconduct. Police officials say Lieutenants Rick Thomas and Mike Fossum were involved in an arrest late last month that is under investigation. The event happened at the Little Earth United Tribes housing development and was recorded by a video camera that belongs to the organization. Officials from Little Earth would not comment on what was captured on the tape. But they did say the alleged victim was not a resident of the development. American Indian activist Clyde Bellecourt, says he was contacted by a woman who believes she is related to the man.
