• ‘Prairie Thunder' campaign targets Huron, Belle Fourche and Yankton (argusleader.com) — State troopers recently carried out “Operation Prairie Thunder” saturation patrols in Belle Fourche, Huron, and Yankton, jailing 75 people on drug and other charges. The state-funded effort, ordered by Gov. Larry Rhoden, also involved cooperation with federal immigration officials and has raised concerns in some communities about ICE’s role and the broader impact of these intensive patrols.
