A man has been charged with murder after investigators say he shot and killed his ex-girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend during a confrontation in Mankato last weekend.

The criminal complaint accuses 23-year-old A’Quan Kaishaid Laurence Thornton of firing multiple rounds at the victim as the man drove away Sunday morning, striking him in the neck and causing his death.

Officers were called around 9:24 a.m. on Nov 9 after a woman reported that Thornton had been threatened and her tires had been slashed at the apartment complex where she lives. While she was still on the phone with dispatch, several 911 callers reported gunfire and an injured person at a nearby business. Responding officers found the victim in the driver’s seat of a black vehicle with tinted windows. He had suffered a life-threatening gunshot wound to the neck and was pronounced dead at the scene.
