Daddy issues

A West Passyunk man supposedly shot his father as the patriarch conveyed him to a rehabilitation facility last week.

Kymere Corbin, of the 2000 block of South Bonsall Street, faces an April 20 preliminary hearing based on claims that on April 7, as Elbert Corbin Jr. and Tanya Bates, the latter the accused figure’s mother, were attempting to convey the 22-year-old to the Malvern Institute, the individual produced a 9mm semiautomatic pistol and inflicted one gunshot wound in his father’s head, police said. The elder Corbin, traveling along the Schuylkill Expressway, was able to stop the car, with Bates fleeing the scene, according to published reports.

Police arrested the West Passyunk dweller shortly after and led him to a King of Prussia courtroom April 8. Judge William Maruszczak set bail at $500,000 and had him detained at the Montgomery County prison. Penn Presbyterian Medical Center personnel reported the injured male as being in critical but stable condition.
