One injured in Milbank shooting, suspect arrested

MILBANK, S.D. (Dakota News Now) – South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley announced that one person had been arrested following a shooting that occurred at a Milbank nursing home on Wednesday.

Jackley told Dakota News Now that an employee dispute led to the shooting at Avantara Milbank where a supervisor was shot in the nose area and received minor injuries.

The suspect was arrested and there is no danger to the public at this time.

The Attorney General applauded local law enforcement for their swift response.

“It was a very strong and quick law enforcement response, they had to make sure that they contained the area, that the victim was taken care of, and that the suspect was apprehended. And so they did a very strong job of doing that in a very efficient manner bringing safety to the Milbank community,” Jackley said.

South Dakota DCI is leading the investigation and the suspect is in the process of being formally charged.

They are presumed innocent under the US Constitution.
