MINNEAPOLIS — A fugitive indicted in a shooting on the Red Lake Indian Reservation that left one man dead and two others injured has surrendered to authorities.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office says 22-year-old Cruze Anthony White is expected to make an appearance in federal court in Bemidji Tuesday afternoon following his surrender Monday night.

White was indicted last week along with 22-year-old Donald Leigh Clark Jr. on five counts, including murder and assault with intent to commit murder.

The indictment accuses the two men of killing Julian Keith DeMarrias and assaulting his brother and another man Nov. 3 on the reservation.

Clark’s vehicle was found abandoned in an old graveyard in Redby about a week after the shooting. He was arrested Jan. 15.

The FBI and tribal police department investigated the shooting.
