Coeur d'Alene Tribe sued over deaths at casino


The Coeur d'Alene Tribe is being sued over two deaths at its casino in Idaho.

Donald S. Hanson, 55, and Richard E. Stokes, 49, died in a June 2006 fire at the Coeur d'Alene Casino. The fire was determined to be an accident but it was linked to fireworks and propane stored in a shipping container at the casino.

The families of the two victims filed claims in state and tribal court for more than $1.8 million.
