RAPID CITY, S.D. – The Meade County State’s Attorney’s Office is dropping felony domestic violence charges against a former TV anchor.

Shad Olson was charged with aggravated assault-domestic violence, after being accused of assaulting a woman in her home back in February.

That charge has now been dismissed.

Olson, however, still faces a charge of simple assault-domestic violence.
