Yes, depending on where you are and how that state handles the police powers of tribal officers. If you are on Indian land, the tribal officer has the authority to enforce all laws, including traffic laws. Off of Indian land, some tribal officers retain their police powers and some do not. If a tribal officer attempted to pull you over and you refused to stop, and you were off of Indian land, he would probably request a local non-tribal officer or sheriff's deputy to assist him.

Yes, because a witness probably told him, and if someone saw it happen they can tell a police officer. If no one saw it and the police did not see it then they would not pull you over, unless he has ESP. There is a chance you are being pulled over for something else. Anotehr reason would be reasonable suspicion; an officer does not need to see you robbing a bank if he knows it happened and you are speeding away.
