The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office reports the arrest of a South Dakota man following a trespassing call on Friday morning. At approximately 9:10 a.m. Deputies were called to rural Thurman for a report of a male trespassing at a previously flooded farm. The man fled the scene but was later located at another previously flooded property in the 1500 block of Western Avenue.
