RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - Federal authorities in South Dakota have indicted a man for the October 2017 killing of a man who was found in a burned-out home in Allen.
The Rapid City Journal reports that Emery Arapahoe III is accused in the death of 24-year-old Ray Waters Jr. Arapahoe is charged with second-degree murder, arson, first-degree burglary and larceny.
Court documents accuse Arapahoe of entering the home of Waters’ nephew in order to assault and kill Waters with a “sharp blunt object.” Authorities say Arapahoe set the home on fire and stealing a pickup truck owned by One Spirit, a nonprofit that helps the Lakota people.
