A 21 year old Rapid City man died in a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 90 Monday afternoon (April 21, 2025, at 1:36pm), 10 miles east of Wall, SD.
Preliminary crash information indicates Tage Harold Tyler, the driver of a 2009 Ford Focus, was traveling eastbound on Interstate 90 near mile marker 121 and in the process of passing a 2002 GMC Sierra driven by 60 year old Hartley Jerome Hertel from Sioux Falls. As the Ford was changing lanes back to the driving lane, it came in contact with the front bumper of the GMC and began traveling sideways and both vehicles left the roadway and entered the south ditch. The Ford began to rollover, ejecting Tyler from the vehicle.
Tyler died from his injuries. Hertel and three passengers in the GMC– ages 59, 12 and 8)– were not injured.
The South Dakota Highway Patrol is investigating the crash.
