A 29 year old man from Harrold faces charges in Hughes County after an incident Saturday afternoon (July 13, 2024, approximately 12:15pm CT) in Pierre.
A spokesperson for the Pierre Police Department says a patrol officer was dispatched to the area of Roberts Street and Dakota Avenue because of a possibly intoxicated person and lying face down in the grass. When the officer arrived, he noticed Chance Redwater was moving but was having difficulty walking.
The officer attempted to speak with Redwater, but Redwater would not stop, as requested. The officer grabbed Redwater’s arm to stop him. In response, Redwater tensed up and threatened to hit the officer. Redwater then began to pull away from the officer so the officer ultimately assisted Redwater to the ground and placed him into handcuffs. Redwater continued to threaten to assault the officer, even after being handcuffed.
Redwater taken to the Hughes County Jail charged with threatening a law enforcement officer, resisting arrest, obstructing an officer and simple assault against a law enforcement officer.
