Citizen aids law enforcement in apprehending suspect off Highway 34.
Accident – Death – Obituary News :
The Meade County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call on Highway 34 near White Owl following reports of a vehicle behaving erratically. According to Chief Deputy James Johns, the vehicle was observed stopping in the middle of the road, driving at a slow pace, and then suddenly accelerating.
After spotting the vehicle near Union Center, law enforcement officials initiated a traffic stop. The vehicle eventually came to a halt, and the driver, later identified as Corey Whirlwindhorse, a 55-year-old resident of Rapid City, began to resist arrest and engage in a physical altercation with the deputy.
Fortunately, a Good Samaritan who happened to be passing by stopped to assist the deputy in subduing Whirlwindhorse. The suspect was subsequently taken into custody and now faces multiple charges, including DUI, resisting arrest, driving without a license, and outstanding warrants in Pennington County.
Chief Deputy Johns commended the actions of the Good Samaritan, stating, “In a perfect world, everybody would be willing to step up and help out, but I know there are special individuals who see it as an opportunity to do the right thing. They seize that moment, step up, and assist us in our duties.”
The Meade County Sheriff’s Office is now appealing to the public for information on the identity of the Good Samaritan who aided in the arrest. Anyone with relevant information is urged to contact the Sheriff’s Office at 605-347-2681.
