HOULTON, Maine (AP)   A trial is getting underway for a Maine man charged with manslaughter in the death of a Caribou man.

Jury selection begins Monday in the trial of 22-year-old Jonathan Limary, who faces manslaughter and aggravated assault charges stemming from the death of 44-year-old Caribou resident Jean Bragdon.

Bragdon was injured in an Oct. 30, 2017, fight with Limary.

Manslaughter charges were filed when he died several weeks later from post-surgical complications after the hospital discharged him.
