On December 2nd of 2021 the Madison Police Department  responded to a report of suspicious activity in the area of the Dakotaland Federal Credit Union’s A-T-M machine near the intersection of 2nd Street and Washington Avenue. At the time, Police Chief Justin Meyer said that officers found that the A-T-M had been entered and an undisclosed amount of cash was taken. He said that they were able to obtain video which showed two suspects who used an older F-350 pickup to gain entrance.  That pickup was later recovered in the southeast part of Madison.  Meyer said the pickup had been reported stolen from Brookings.

A trial date has yet to be set. Each defendant was remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service for transport to and for further court appearance in South Dakota. No further information is currently available.
