Leavenworth Police
(KAIR)--A suspect is in custody and formal charges are filed in relation to the death of an 18-year-old Leavenworth man who authorities say died following a fight on Monday.
The fight reportedly stemmed from an altercation that began during a pickup basketball game.
Arrested Wednesday night was 19-year-old Ismael Caleb Salinas-Richardson who the Leavenworth Times reports was taken into custody in Grandview, Missouri.
On Thursday, Salinas-Richardson was charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with Miller's death.
According to a release from Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, the charges were filed following a review of all relevant facts in the case.
KCTV reports the Leavenworth Police investigation into Miller's death began Monday “when officers were called to a disturbance near 6th Street and Shawnee Street in Leavenworth,” with investigators learning that an argument that began during the game continued outside, leading to critical injuries for Miller.
It was in that condition that police found him upon arrival, with Miller transported for care at an area hospital. He died later that night.
Miller was a student at Leavenworth High School.
