Anoka County deputy awarded 'Officer of the Year' for off-duty actions in South Dakota


The Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association awarded the the 2024 Officer of the Year award to Anoka County Deputy Tanner Shipman because of an off-duty intervention during a shootout in South Dakota last August.

Shipman was on vacation in Sturgis, South Dakota, in 2023 when he intervened during a shootout between an attendee and South Dakota state trooper at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, according to the Anoka County Sheriff’s Office.

He assisted the trooper in detaining the shooter and assisted with medical care afterward.

Anoka County Sheriff Brad Wise said it wasn’t surprising Shipman instantly helped out and it’s the highest honor to be recognized for this award because it comes from law enforcement peers.

“Deputy Shipman is an inspiration to law enforcement, as well as all in our community,” Wise said.

MPPOA will formally honor Shipman on Saturday.

A multi-rotor drone and its fixed-wing, one-way attack counterpart that flanked a wall-sized American flag inside a northern Sioux Falls warehouse Friday weren’t the main attraction.

Rather, Pentagon officials and South Dakota dignitaries gathered for an invite-only ceremony at MMS Product, Inc. to get a look at a newly developed military advancement that will give South Dakota a front-row seat to the U.S. military’s race to drone warfare dominance.

Abortion access campaign tests South Dakota laws, free speech standards


A cease and desist order and a national abortion-access organization told to stop advertising in South Dakota are testing both free speech and consumer protection laws.

Attorney General Marty Jackley this week issued notice to Mayday Health directing the nonprofit to halt a statewide gas station ad campaign launched earlier this month, spotlighting South Dakota’s near-total abortion ban, First Amendment protections and the reach of the Deceptive Trade Practices regulations.
