NORTH LAS VEGAS (AP) — Las Vegas police on Tuesday arrested a former actor at his home after they said they uncovered two decades of sexual assault and human trafficking allegations against Nathan Chasing Horse. Known for his role in Kevin Costner’s film “Dances With Wolves,” police say Chasing Horse built a reputation for himself among tribes across the U.S. as a “medicine man” and used his position as a tool to abuse young Native American girls. Chasing Horse is accused of sexually assaulting girls as young as 13 and taking wives as young as 15. Police say the assaults occurred in multiple states, including Nevada, and in Canada.
