MANCHESTER, N.H.—A judge has declared a mistrial in the case of a Manchester, New Hampshire, man charged with second-degree murder in the fatal baseball bat attack on a man three years ago.

Judge James O'Neill declared the mistrial Tuesday in the case of 19-year-old Robinson Garcia.

Earlier Tuesday, two jurors were dismissed, after a day and a half of deliberations. O'Neill said they were dismissed as a result of a letter one juror wrote to him. Two alternates took their place.

Garcia was charged in the death of 41-year-old Stephen Raymond. Police say Raymond was attacked in 2005 after he confronted some children about firing pellets at vehicles.

The attack left Raymond a quadriplegic. He died 10 months later.
