YANKTON, S.D. -- A Watertown, South Dakota, man was hospitalized after being injured in a police shooting Thursday night in the Yankton High School parking lot.
Andrew Jondahl, 40, is facing charges stemming from the shooting, according to a statement from South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley. No one else was injured.
"There is no further threat to the public," the statement said. "We ask that the public give law enforcement the time and space they need to do a full investigation."
The Yankton Police Department is cooperating with the investigation, according to the statement.
The South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation will process the crime scene, conduct a forensic examination of all collected evidence, interview officers and witnesses, and review all video cameras from the area. After the investigation is complete, the DCI will issue a shooting summary likely within 30 days.
