Suspect Arrested in Killing of Montana Camper Initially Thought to Be a Bear Attack
Authorities have identified and arrested a suspect in the brutal murder of Dustin Kjersem, a camper found dead in a tent near Big Sky, Montana. Initially believed to be the victim of a bear attack, further investigation revealed that Kjersem died from multiple chop wounds. A significant breakthrough in the case came from DNA found on a beer can, which linked the suspect to the crime scene. The suspect has since confessed to the killing, claiming self-defense, and is currently facing charges of deliberate homicide. Bail has been set at $1.5 million as the investigation continues.
