Suspect Captured in Cross-State Murder Chase | Pierre News

A 46-year-old man from Sioux Falls, Yien Dak Duop Chiek, was arrested in Iowa after allegedly stabbing his estranged partner, 43-year-old Nysam Chagi, to death last Friday. Authorities used surveillance and Flock cameras to track him down as he fled south on I-29, leading to a high-speed chase and his eventual capture in Onawa. Chiek faces first-degree murder charges, with investigators linking the crime to prior child abuse accusations and an active protection order against him. Law enforcement praised cross-state cooperation and rapid tech-assisted response, capturing the suspect in under two hours — while urging the public to avoid misinformation online.
