A tragic bar brawl in downtown Lawrence ended in death: 20-year-old McMillin Tutu was fatally stabbed early Saturday morning near Seventh and Massachusetts streets. The suspect, 25-year-old Keisonn Smith Jr. of Topeka, was arrested August 30 and formally charged with second-degree murder and intimidation of a witness. Tutu, from Kansas City, Missouri, died at the hospital after sustaining multiple stab wounds. Smith’s initial federal hold delayed charges, but he’s now facing court — though details of the night’s events remain scarce. This is a developing story with more updates expected from prosecutors.
