AN OLD WEST shootout staged as part of a charity fundraiser may have come a little too close to the real thing when three tourists were injured.
South Dakota authorities say the three were injured on Friday night at a shootout in Hill City and taken to a hospital about 30 miles away. A Pennington County sheriff’s spokesman says the tourists’ injuries are not life-threatening.

No further details have been released.
The shootout staged by volunteer cowboys from Rapid City is a regular summer attraction in the area and a fundraiser for the Children’s Miracle Network.
