FBI Requests Public’s Help in Fatal Hit and Run on Blackfeet Reservation

Check out these tribal police books and learn about Native American law enforcement.

The FBI Salt Lake City Division is requesting the public’s help in identifying the person responsible for a fatal hit and run on the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana. Early Sunday, at approximately 1:45 a.m., a male was hit and killed on Highway 2 between Browning and East Glacier. At this time, it appears the adult man left his vehicle for an unknown reason and began walking westbound along the highway, where he was hit and killed. The driver who hit him left the scene. At this point, the FBI is not releasing the victim’s name to ensure all next of kin has been notified.

The FBI is collaborating with the Glacier County Sheriff’s Office, Blackfeet Tribal Police, and Montana Highway Patrol to solve this case. If anyone has any information they are asked to contact the FBI office in Shelby, MT at 406-424-8411, or the main FBI office in Salt Lake City, UT at 801-579-1400.

The FBI would like to thank the media and the public for assisting in this matter.
