A 34-year-old Sioux Falls man was arrested earlier this month for assaulting a police officer, resisting arrest, shoplifting, and inhaling a substance for the purpose of becoming intoxicated. The suspect was caught stealing several cans of computer duster from a local store and ‘huffing’ their contents in the store’s restroom. Employees reportedly “heard a hissing noise coming from the bathroom” and immediately confronted the man and forced him to leave the premises. Employees then notified police of the incident, submitting a full description of the ‘huffer.’ Police located the suspect shortly thereafter, and despite a “brief scuffle” placed the suspect into custody. No injuries have been reported.
