Huron Shooting Death

Bond has been set at $50 thousand for a man accused in a Huron shooting death.

Twenty-one-year-old Eric Macauley appeared in court Monday and requested a court-appointed attorney.

Authorities say the shooting happened late Sunday at a home in the southwestern part of town.  The victim was identified as 21-year-old David Macauley.

Beadle County deputy state's attorney, Jeff Banks, says the Macauleys are related but he would not elaborate.

It is the second shooting death in Huron in a matter of days.  Authorities say a local doctor shot and killed himself on Thursday during the course of a police investigation.
