An Albany man has been arrested after police say he allegedly beat his own grandfather to death.
According to investigators, 33-year-old Nicholas Pantoni assaulted 82-year-old Gerald Curran last Friday at the victim's home on Arcadia Court in Colonie. Curran later passed away and an autopsy revealed that he died due to blunt force trauma. Pantoni is charged with assault and is in the Albany County Jail. He's expected to be back in court Wednesday.
