Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier, front, listens to Brian Wesley Horinek, of Oklahoma, outside the New Camp on Pipeline Easement in North Dakota on Wednesday, Oct. 26, 2016. Sheriff Kirchmeier and Cass County Sheriff Paul Laney were at the site where a human barricade stopped traffic on North Dakota Highway 1806. The prospect of a police raid on an encampment protesting the Dakota Access pipeline faded as night fell Wednesday, with law enforcement making no immediate move after protesters rejected their request to withdraw from private land. Activists fear the nearly 1,200-mile pipeline could harm cultural sites and drinking water for the Standing Rock Sioux tribe. (Tom Stromme/The Bismarck Tribune via AP)
