CONCHO -- The former head of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes has turned in a luxury car after the tribal prosecutor charged him with stealing it.

Bill Blind was the Concho-based tribes' business committee chairman until losing a re-election bid earlier this year.

An embezzlement complaint filed in August accuses Blind of failing to return a 2002 Lincoln Town Car he bought using tribal funds.

Blind surrendered the car Friday at his tribal court arraignment, prosecutor Charles Morris said. Blind's next court appearance is Oct. 20.
