South Dakota Highway Patrol: One person dies in crash in McCook County
A 61-year-old man died in a one-vehicle crash northwest of Salem, according to the Highway Patrol.
The crash happened when a 2003 Toyota Tacoma pickup was northbound on 431st Avenue, went through the intersection of 247th Street and eventually rolled into the east ditch, according to South Dakota Highway Patrol spokesperson Tony Mangan.
The driver, who was not wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene, Mangan said.
The name of the person involved has not yet been released pending notification of family members.

With council preparing for another mask vote, here s how the mandate got started
On Tuesday evening, the Sioux Falls City Council will once again consider an ordinance that would extend the city s mask mandate, in place since Nov. 21.
But unlike previous ordinances, which set a date for the mandate s expiration, the proposal in question would see the mask mandate end once the state moves on to its next phase of vaccinations.
If passed, it could potentially be the final council action on a months-long issue that has brought hours of heated argument from both councilors and the public.
Councilor Curt Soehl first talked about proposing a mask mandate in late October, as hospitalizations from COVID-19 crossed 150 and case counts neared 4,000.
