PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP) — A New Hampshire man has been sentenced to 10 1/2 to 22 years in prison in a dance floor assault at a Portsmouth bar that led to the death of another man.

Zachary O'Neil of Dover was sentenced Thursday for manslaughter in the death of 24-year-old Joshua Krantz of Dover in April.

Police say O'Neil was angry that Krantz had spilled a drink on him earlier in the evening. O'Neill is accused of repeatedly striking Krantz in the head.
