A Monroe County Grand Jury has indicted the man accused of fatally shooting his two-year-old son in the head on a new felony charge.
That indictment will remain sealed until Charles Phillips is brought back into court for the shooting of his son, Zayden Phillips. The toddler was shot last Friday and died on Wednesday at Strong Memorial Hospital.
A court filing says the older Phillips shot his son while behaving recklessly with a handgun. He’s being held without bail and will now appear in court this evening. He’s currently accused of first degree assault and criminal possession of a weapon.
