Suspect In Rapid City Shooting Pleads

  A Rapid City man accused of hiding a gun
used in a shooting at a Rapid City basketball tournament has
pleaded guilty under a plea agreement with prosecutors.

Twenty-year-old Joel Little faces up to five years in prison 
when he is sentenced next month on a lesser charge of accessory to
aggravated assault, though the plea deal calls for probation and
credit for time served. Little initially had been charged with
being an accessory to attempted murder.

Little admitted in court Tuesday to hiding the gun used to shoot
20-year-old Shane Bordeaux.

Another man, Simon Torres, is accused of shooting and critically
injuring Bordeaux at the Lakota Nation Invitational in December.
Torres has pleaded not guilty to attempted first-degree murder and
an alternate count of aggravated assault.
