UPPER LAKE, Calif. – On Friday, Sheriff Brian Martin presented the Habematolel Band of Pomo Indians and Running Creek Casino with a certificate of appreciation for their assistance in providing information that led to the arrest of a man who had brandished a firearm at another man at the casino last month.
Lakeport resident Robert Doane was arrested on Jan. 21 as a result of a sheriff's office investigation aided by the tribe, as Lake County News has reported: www.bit.ly/1E3UQbG .
Sheriff Martin said he values the cooperation and collaboration between the sheriff's office and communities in Lake County. The certificate symbolizes that appreciation.
“It is very encouraging to know that we have partners in our community that provide us with assistance in keeping our neighborhoods and businesses safe,” Martin said.
Sherry Treppa, chair of the board of directors of TLE Corp., which operates Running Creek Casino, accepted the certificate on behalf of the executive council.
“The executive council was honored to receive this acknowledgment from the sheriff’s office,” Treppa said. “The staff of Running Creek Casino's Tribal Gaming Commission is to be commended for their exemplary performance in assisting the sheriff’s office in this matter. The tribe values our relationships with local county agencies including law enforcement, and is committed to the protection of our people, patrons and the community at large.”
