Teen charged over death of father of one

A TEENAGER was brought before a special sitting of Roscommon District Court last night and charged in connection with the death of a man in a small Roscommon village.

Thomas Cunningham, 46, was found in the garden of his parents’ house on the outskirts of Ballinlough on Thursday morning.

A postmortem examination later that night showed the father-of-one died as a result of an assault.
