Read our privacy policy A federal judge has granted a partial stop in production of a controversial multi-billion dollar oil pipeline following a violent confrontation between Native American protesters and construction workers in North Dakota. “Today’s denial of a temporary restraining order … west of Lake Oahe puts my people’s sacred places at further risk of ruin and desecration,” said Dave Archambault II, Standing Rock Sioux tribal chairman. Lawyers asked the judge to reject the tribe's request to halt construction temporarily, and added that the company “has taken and continues to take every reasonable precaution” to protect sacred sites. Assistant Attorney General John Cruden added in court documents: “he public interest would be served by preserving peace.” More than 3,000 Native American people have gathered at the Lake Oahe construction site to protest the building of the pipeline.
