AUBURN, Maine (AP) A Maine man who pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the death of a Massachusetts resident in an Auburn fast-food parking lot was sentenced to 25 years in prison Monday.

Police initially charged Trai Larue, of Lewiston, with murder stemming from 21-year-old Roger Cornell’s 2020 death. Cornell, of New Bedford, was found injured in the parking lot and later died at a hospital.

Larue was sentenced in Androscoggin County. Some of his sentence will be suspended, WCSH-TV reported.
