FERRISBURGH (AP) -- Police say a 25-year-old Vermont man is now facing a charge of second-degree homicide in connection with a fight that resulted in another man's death.
State police said Sunday that Joseph Bolduc of Burlington will be arraigned Monday in Addison County Criminal Court. Besides the homicide charge, he's charged with driving under the influence, leaving the scene of an accident, driving with a suspended license, resisting arrest and attempting to disarm an officer.
Police say Bolduc was one of several people involved in a fight at a bonfire in Ferrisburgh shortly before midnight Friday. Forty-year-old Conrad Bell of Vergennes died as a result of his injuries.
Officials say an autopsy has been completed and investigators are waiting a report from the medical examiner on the cause and manner of death.
