New Hampshire man charged with murder in toddler death

A New Hampshire man is facing second-degree murder charges in connection with the death of a toddler last year. The New Hampshire Attorney General’s office announced that 22-year-old Annthoni Bliss was arrested on Tuesday for the murder of 23-month-old Luca Hudson, who died in January of 2024. Keene Police were called when the toddler was found unconscious and not breathing. Despite efforts to save the child, Luca died two days later at the hospital. An autopsy confirmed the cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head, with the manner of death ruled a homicide. Bliss, who appeared in court on Wednesday, did not enter a plea. The case continues to develop, and authorities are working to uncover more details.
