A 14-year-old murder case in upstate New York led to an arrest after new forensic evidence exonerated a previously cleared suspect.

A 14-year-old murder case in upstate New York has taken a dramatic turn after new evidence led investigators to arrest a suspect previously cleared. The victim, a 25-year-old man, was found dead in 2011 in a remote area, sparking a lengthy investigation. Authorities say advances in forensic technology and a re-examination of witness statements uncovered inconsistencies that redirected the case. The arrest, made earlier this week, marks the first breakthrough in the cold case. No further details about the suspect or the evidence have been released.
