Police in the Indian reservation town of Red Lake, Minn., arrested two photographers Tuesday while they were covering the aftermath of the worst school shooting in the United States in six years. Tribal police confiscated the camera and an electronic disk owned by AP photographer J. Pat Carter. They also kept a fanny pack containing photographic equipment belonging to the other photographer, Scott Olson, who was working for Getty Images. Carter said the two were driving on the main highway, which they believed was permissible, taking pictures of a roadside memorial. A moment later, several police cars pulled them over and confronted the pair with guns drawn. One of the officers said Carter had a gun in his vehicle. Carter insisted he had no weapon and believed the officers saw his photo equipment. After being handcuffed briefly, the two photographers were released. After the AP appealed to the tribe, the gear of both photographers was returned the next day and appeared to be in good working order. Authorities are trying to determine why a 16-year-old student went on the shooting rampage that began at his grandfather's house and ended at Red Lake High School. Nine people were killed and seven were wounded before the gunman apparently shot himself.
