YANKTON, S.D. (AP) - A Yankton man is facing criminal charges after a fight inside a Yankton pizza restaurant turned deadly.

The 22-year-old man is accused of fatally shooting Lucas Smith in an alley last Saturday after the two were thrown out of Mojo’s Pizza and Spirits because of a fight. Police say the suspect approached Smith with a gun shortly after they were kicked out of the restaurant, shot him several times and ran from the scene.

The Argus Leader says police pinged the suspect’s phone to find him. He was arrested at his Yankton residence.
