WENTWORTH, N.H. (AP) - New Hampshire’s attorney general says a man has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of a 60-year-old man in Wentworth last month.

Thomas Corliss was arrested Monday in the Nov. 23 death of Todd Downing.

Attorney General Joseph Foster says Downing was found injured at his home in Wentworth. He was treated at the scene and later died at a hospital. An autopsy showed the cause of death to be blunt impact injuries and that his manner of death was homicide.



The 30-year-old Corliss was being arraigned Monday in Plymouth, New Hampshire. It wasn’t immediately known if he had an attorney.
