(KNZA)--A federal grand jury in Topeka has indicted a man for a fatal shooting in July on the Kickapoo Reservation.

The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Kansas said in a release Friday that 34-year-old Stryder Keo was charged with one count of murder in the second degree.

Keo is charged in the shooting death of 35-year-old William Blacksmith on July 17.

Authorities say Blacksmith was shot multiple times.

The release says the federal government has jurisdiction over the case because it happened within Indian country.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Jared S. Maag is prosecuting the case.
