Meade County Fugitive Arrested after Foot Chase in Spearfish

SPEARFISH, S.D. (AP) — A man who fled after being handcuffed by sheriff's deputies in Meade County over the weekend is back in custody.

Deputies tried to arrest 32-year old Kerri Nacey on Sunday for allegedly violating a court-ordered sobriety program. He was able to flee and remained on the lam until Wednesday afternoon, when Lawrence County deputies and Spearfish police arrested him after a foot chase in Spearfish.

Authorities say escape charges are pending against Nacey. The Black Hills Pioneer reports that he also faces felony drunken driving warrants from Butte County. It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.
