Katie Kloth, 27, who is accused of felony robbery with use of force during a raid at a Gogebic Taconite test drilling site last summer, will be arraigned May 30 in Iron County.
She was among about a dozen people recorded on video emerging from the Iron County forest at the drilling site dressed in black masks. The video showed an obscenity-laced protest among drillers and geologists on June 11.
Kloth, who is from Weston, has not told investigators who the other raiders are.

About $2,500 in damage was caused at the site, but there was little or no delay in drilling. Kloth faces one felony and three misdemeanors, including theft of a cell phone and criminal damage to property.
