Not normally. But if he thought he hit a deer, called the sheriff, searched for it, that eventful drive home could prompt such a tweet at such a time.
I'm not saying that he is in the clear, the changing story is certainly dubious. But some of the points that posters are objecting to are explainable.

People hit deer all the time. No one calls the f***ing police (although you will be going to a body shop in the next couple days.)
He knew what he did. He hit the guy and kept going. Gets home, starts gurgling mouthwash, and decides to put a time-stamped plausible-deniability marker down by calling the Sheriff's Office and, in his best heartland, good-citizen voice reports "Why sheriff, I do believe I hit a deer out yonder on Highway 12. It was real dark, y'see, so I cain be too sure, but I reckon it was a deer I hit and I thought I might oughta report it."
Translation: sleazy Republican liar, boozed up behind the wheel and hit and killed guy. Trying to bullshit his way out of it. MAGA-nation in action!
Huh. If that’s even what happened, sounds a lot like Ted Kennedy/Chappaquiddick.

You must be a city person. During rutting season deer fly across roads late at night. Trust me, they don't stand by the side of the road.

I read a long report tonight. It's reported...but not confirmed... that he made a 911 call and a local sheriff showed up and they looked around. I'd love to hear from the sheriff because the call can be verified. I once hit a deer late at night who ran into the side of my car with a ton of damage. I stopped but I couldn't find the deer even though I walked up and down the road. I think it was a deer but now I can't be sure. It was in the middle of nowhere but I never read about someone being found dead by the side of the road. This crap happens in the boonies. The facts will come out, let's keep the conspiracy crazies at bay. Where was Hunter Biden that night?

If you think you hit a deer, but you are already home ---- > you don't call the police!
You do if you want a time-stamped recording you can later use to try to dodge a hit-and-run manslaughter charge. "But I called it in! I honestly thought it was a deer.I"
Lies. Deceit. MAGA.

So he allegedly stopped and looked for his victim at night but couldn’t see him?
They also didn't see the pickup truck in the hay bale.
That's the only part that makes sense. Looking for something in the country in the dark with a cellphone flashlight? Not surprised that they couldn't find anything.
It’s the not seeing the truck and the hay bale (was the deceased drunk, or had a hay bale fallen off a truck and he hit it?)? That just doesn’t track, especially with the squad there, which, as another pp points out, has powerful lights for just such an event.

And it usually involves a person driving drunk.
The state has already confirmed that the body was discovered Sunday morning out near the crash site. The body was not entangled in the car.
This article by a local news team has more info than most of the major sources which seem to be basing their articles on a wire posting.
https://www.keloland.com/news/local-news/family-identifies-fatal-crash-victim-involving-sd-ag-questions-why-it-took-so-long-to-identify-body/
I hope the good people of South Dakota don't fall for the cover-up. It is pretty obvious what happened.
Did you read the article? It does seem obvious what happened, when you read it. The victim drove his pickup off the road into a hay bale, wrecked the bumper, got a ride home from his cousins, inexplicably returned to his wrecked truck, and then was struck.
Uh, ya, by a likely drunk or impaired state Attorney General who was returning home from a GOP event a a local bar, who inexplicably reported hitting a deer 36 hours later.
Where do you keep getting 36 hours from?
He went to an event at 8pm Saturday night. He called the Sheriff's office at 10:30pm Saturday night reporting he had hit a deer.
The victim crashed his truck sometime around dinner-time, and called his cousin for help. His cousin drove him home around 8:30pm Saturday night with the agreed plan that the cousin would pick him up early Sunday morning to go and repair the truck and bring it home. When the cousin got to the victim's house Sunday morning, the lights were on, the door unlocked and the victim was missing. THe cousin alerted the Sheriff's office around 8am. The victim was found Sunday afternoon. The family, including the cousin that had reported the victim missing identified the body around 8pm Sunday night, about 22 hours after the accident.
The state has already confirmed that the AG called the Sheriff Saturday night after the accident. It may be a question whether he knew that he hit a deer or a man, but there isn't a question of whether he did or did not call the sheriff's office until Monday morning.
If you think you hit a deer, but you are already home ---- > you don't call the police! Why would you call the police about road kill that you aren't sure exists or where it would be?
You only call about a "deer" if you want the police to find the body you know is there. You don't need to tell anybody about road kill (when it is really an animal you killed.)

Police vehicles have side-illuminating and front-illuminating lights. They can blind you with their UV power. Maybe they didn't want to find the body. Maybe it was to be "discovered" in the a.m.
Yes and I personally know of a police officer who was fired for not having a flashlight and not seeing a shooting victim at night. Her life could have been saved. It’s incompetence. This poor man could probably have been saved if he had been found by the sheriff. Instead he lay there all night. There’s a video out there with a reporter walking the road showing the painted areas left by investigators. It suggests a huge debris field which suggests very high speed. The man was thrown pretty far off the road. I hope the people of SD demand a thorough investigation. I think the fix is in though.

The sheriff didn't have a flashlight with him? Have you ever known a law enforcement officer who didn't carry a big, heavy, BRIGHT flashlight?
