Yankton County Chief Deputy Sheriff Michael Rothschadl says that on Tuesday afternoon at 3:13PM, the Yankton County Sheriff’s Office was investigating a theft of several radiators that occurred at Truck Trailer Sales on East Highway 50.
The Sheriff’s Office located a suspect in the theft, 18-year-old Matthew Grage, on Tuesday.
