Suspect in Brookings burglaries faces additional charges

One of the men accused of burglaries in Brookings, Brandon and Elk Point is now facing additional charges.

Authorities arrested Mitchell Arevalo last week. He and Dakota Durrani are charged with burglary and grand theft in Brookings County. The two men are accused in a series of structure and vehicle burglaires, including the theft of a number of guns.

On Friday, a grand jury in Minnehaha County indicted Arevalo on 14 counts of receiving stolen guns in 2021. That investigation involved crimes in five different counties.
