GETTYSBURG, Pa. (AP) — Authorities have announced the arrest of a new suspect in a rape and murder more than three decades ago for which another man served 16 years in prison before he was exonerated by DNA evidence.

Fifty-eight-year-old Chris Speelman of New Oxford is charged with criminal homicide, rape, robbery and burglary in the August 1987 slaying of 85-year-old Edna Laughman.

District Attorney Brian Sinnett said Speelman had lived next-door to the victim "within the same structure" about a decade earlier and his DNA was "an absolute match."

Court documents don't list a defense attorney, and a working phone number for him could not be found Tuesday.
