Four Arrested In Sioux Falls Shooting

Four men are in custody following Monday afternoon's shooting in Sioux Falls. Jordan LeBeau, 20, was killed and his father was injured in the shooting.   Two of the suspects were located Tuesday morning near Dell Rapids while the other two were arrested in Watertown later Tuesday afternoon. Brian Anderson, 18, and Trevor Kruthoff, 17, are being charged with murder. Sam Clemens with the Sioux Falls Police Department says there was a motive.

"I think its probably been inferred but this case has been drug related. There has been some drugs that were found in the house. Some different amounts, I don't have the exact amounts, but some marijuana and some other controlled drugs as well," Clemens says. "There was some cash that was inside the house."

The suspects told police they were hoping to steal around $100,000 at the LeBeau residence. Kevin Rice, 20, and Douglas Scholten, 20, are also being charged  in this case. Their charges are first degree robbery, first degree burglary and aggravated assault. Rice and Scholten are scheduled to appear in court on Thursday.
