1 hospitalized, another arrested in residential fire

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - One person was taken to the hospital, two were treated at the scene and another person was arrested after fire broke out in a multi-family residence in Sioux Falls.

Officials say a man was arrested after trying to push past authorities to save his beer inside the residence Sunday afternoon.

Police Sgt. Andrew Siebenborn tells the Argus Leader (https://argusne.ws/2oDCXvp ) the man used “poor judgment” by trying to run back into the house and was arrested for interfering with a fire or law enforcement official.

The person taken to the hospital suffered from smoke inhalation and burns. There’s no immediate word on that person’s condition.
