WOLF POINT, Mont. (AP) - A Poplar, Mont., man is jailed on $250,000 bail, accused of rustling cattle.

A criminal information filed in Roosevelt County District court alleges Richard Holen stole 37 head of cattle in eight incidents dating back to October of last year.

The document indicates most of the cattle were stolen Sept. 4 of this year, and some allegedly were taken as recently as Monday.

County Attorney Ryan Rusche says 48-year-old Holen is charged with eight counts of felony theft.

Holen's arrest was announced Wednesday in Helena by the Montana Department of Livestock, which said the investigation was jointly conducted by that agency, the Fort Peck Tribal Fish & Game, Bureau of Indian Affairs Land Department, Fort Peck Tribal Law & Justice and Roosevelt County sheriff's office.
