FINLEY, N.D. — A new sheriff's deputy in eastern North Dakota quickly found
out the need for his services when his own vehicle was stolen in his first week
on the job.
Authorities say a man who had driven his car into a ditch, walked into the
yard of Deputy Jay Dugan and drove off in his truck, later totaling the vehicle
following a six-mile chase with law officers.
Twenty-two-year-old Derek Fuglem of rural Northwood faces several charges.
Dugan is a deputy for both Steele and Griggs counties.
