*1087OPINION OF THE COURT
Robert G. Main, Jr., J.
The Mohawk Nation, in general, and the St. Regis Mohawk Tribe, in particular, have a long and storied history. Among many other things, this has resulted in the enactment of an express state legislative provision creating the St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Police on the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation at Akwesasne, New York. The provision is codified at Indian Law § 114. An interpretation of the statute’s jurisdictional provisions, as they relate to the facts and circumstances of the instant criminal prosecution, is the sole issue before this court.
