A grand jury has indicted David Amotun on murder charges in the death of an 18-year-old in Watertown.

The prosecutor's office said the 21-year-old Amotun was indicted on alternate charges of first-degree murder and second-degree murder, plus grand theft.

He's accused of killing Brandy Cotton, with whom he once had a relationship. She was found dead Jan. 30 in her grandmother's house in Watertown.

Amotun was arrested early the next morning in Sioux Falls.
