BATON ROUGE, La. (BRPROUD) -- A Baton Rouge man accused of using a baseball bat to kill his roommate was formally charged with second-degree murder on Wednesday.

According to an affidavit, deputies found "a significant amount of blood" in front of a trailer on Hooper Road on Aug. 2. The East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office said Molina-Campos was found covered in blood and detained for questioning.
