RC Police searching for suspect in weekend homicide

RAPID CITY, S.D.— The Rapid City Police Department is asking for the public’s help in finding 22-year-old Jamys Flying Horse.

He is being sought in connection with the September 6 homicide shooting that took place at a Hemlock Street residence.

Police found 31-year-old William Clifford, of Box Elder, lying on the floor of a garage on Hemlock Street with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. Police performed emergency life-saving measures until medics arrived. But, the man died on the scene.

At about the same time during the call on Hemlock Street, police were called to a residence in the 1100 block of Sycamore Street for a report of an injured male in the driveway of the person who called the police.

When police arrived, they located the individual and noticed that the male victim had also received a gunshot wound. Police performed life saving measures and first aid before a medical unit arrived to transport the victim to the hospital with serious, non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say it appears the shooting happened as a result of a dispute during a party at the Hemlock residence.

Flying Horse is a state parole absconder who is currently considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts should contact police immediately at 394-4131. An anonymous tip can be submitted by texting the letters “RCPD” along with the information to 847-411.
