On March 18, 2025, a Roberts County Sheriff’s Deputy encountered an individual behind the Sisseton Warming House during a routine patrol. The individual was part of a group consuming alcohol in public and was known to the deputy to have an active arrest warrant and be on parole (for assault on law enforcement).
As the deputy attempted to place the individual under arrest, the suspect became physically aggressive and attempted to disarm the deputy by grabbing a department-issued TASER. The deputy maintained control of the situation and prevented the weapon from being removed.
