A Montreal man has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of his nine-year-old daughter in upstate New York.

Luciano Frattolin, 45, is being held at the Essex County Jail after the body of his daughter, Montreal resident Melina Frattolin, was found on Sunday in the town of Ticonderoga, N.Y., about two hours south of her home. Mr. Frattolin had reported Melina missing to local police on Saturday night and an Amber Alert had been issued for her.
