Dutchy (Apache scout)

Dutchy (c. 1855 – 12 March 1893), born Bakeitzogie, meaning Yellow Coyote,[1] was a Chiricahua and Apache scout who served with Lieutenant Britton Davis during the Apache Wars.

[2] In the early 1870s, Dutchy's father killed a white man and fled to the hills.

Dutchy continued as a scout until late in 1886 until he was indicted by a United States grand jury in November 1884 for the murder of Jacob Samuel Ferrin near San Carlos in July 1883.

He was beaten to death on 12 March 1893 during a drunken brawl with white soldiers.
