Lincoln County deputies arrested a South Dakota man after he allegedly walked into a home near Sutherland.
On November 6, 2020, at 2:42 a.m., a citizen on West Simmons Road near Sutherland, NE. called for assistance. The citizen advised a male subject had walked into her home and appeared injured from a motor vehicle accident.
Deputies responded to the residence and met with twenty-four-year-old Pine Ridge, South Dakota resident David Nuno.
LCSO says Nuno had minor injuries and was not cooperative with deputies on the scene.
According to LCSO, deputies located Nuno’s vehicle a short distance away from the residence in a cornfield. They say Nuno appeared to be under the influence of a narcotic and was arrested on suspicion of 1st-degree trespassing.
Deputies deployed the Lincoln County K-9 on the vehicle and it indicated drugs were in the vehicle. As a result, LCSO says deputies searched the vehicle and found several grams of suspected methamphetamine, needles and suspected marijuana in the car. Deputies seized the narcotics for testing and towed the vehicle.
Deputies transported Nuno to Great Plains Health for treatment of his injuries. Upon his release, Mr. Nuno was incarcerated in the Lincoln County Detention Center for Trespassing and Possession of a Controlled Substance. Additional charges are possible in this case.
