SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - A 61-year-old transient who was beaten with a chair Sunday afternoon near the Union Gospel Mission has died from his injuries.
Officer Sam Clemens says Daniel Obed Murillo was arrested shortly after the attack for aggravated assault.
Clemens says the Minnehaha County State's Attorney is considering additional charges against Murillo.
He says Murillo is accused of the swinging the chair so many times at the victim that it eventually broke. Murillo allegedly continued beating the victim with a piece of the broken chair.
Clemens says the victim was attacked from behind.
