Chiropractor Arrested In Connection to Mandan Homicides

Police say the owner of the business and three employees suffered gunshot and stab wounds.

WASHBURN, N.D. – A Washburn man has been arrested in Monday’s quadruple homicide at RJR Maintenance and Management in Mandan.

Police say the owner of the business and three employees suffered gunshot and stab wounds.

Investigators identified the suspect’s vehicle from surveillance video.

During a traffic stop in Washburn, which is 40 miles north of Mandan, police say they found evidence in 44-year-old Chad Isaak’s vehicle giving them probable cause to arrest him.

Issak, a 44-year-old chiropractor, lived in a trailer park managed by RJR Property Management.

He was detained without incident and is being held in the McLean County Jail.

Police say they’re not looking for any other suspects.

“The motive is really unknown right now. It was already broken that the trailer park was managed by RJR. We don’t know what the connection with Mr. Isaak,” Mandan Police Chief Jason Ziegler said.

Reporter, “The trailer park where he lived?”

“That’s correct,” Chief Ziegler explained.
