BLUNT, S.D. (AP) - A 35-year-old Pierre man was arrested Friday on charges of crashing a stolen car through the doors of a Blunt business.
Hughes County Sheriff's Deputy Sgt. Darin Johnson says that deputies received a report at 6 a.m. Friday of a break-in at the Blunt Cash Store. Johnson says Ryan Sholes allegedly drove a 1995 Ford Thunderbird into the front doors of the building and stole beer and cigarettes.
Johnson says Sholes turned himself in later Friday morning. He's charged with grand theft, driving under the influence, burglary and intentional damage to property.
Attorney information for Sholes was not immediately available.
Damage to the Blunt Cash Store was estimated by the owner at $10,000.
