A Fort Pierre, S.D., man faces multiple charges in connection with the theft of Dually, a champion barrel racing horse allegedly stolen from the Stanley County fairgrounds in July.  

The horse was competing in the Fort Pierre Rodeo when it was taken from the Stanley County Fair Grounds on July 5. Sheriff’s deputies later recovered the horse in a corral elsewhere in Fort Pierre.

Flint Dahl, 22, surrendered to the Stanley County Sheriff on Tuesday after a County Court judge issued a warrant for his arrest on charges of felony grand theft and misdemeanor inhumane treatment of an animal.
