Manchester, NH father Murtadah Mohammad charged with 7-year-old son's murder
BOSTON – The father of a 7-year-old Manchester, New Hampshire boy who died after being burned and badly beaten is now facing a murder charge.
The New Hampshire attorney general said Murtadah Mohammad has been arrested on one count of second-degree murder for his son's death.
In January, emergency crews responded to a call in Manchester.
A boy was found unconscious and suffering from severe burns. He later died from those injuries.
Mohammad was already in jail on charges of child abuse.
