The man accused of shooting his two-year-old son in the head last month has been indicted by a Monroe County Grand Jury.

The indictment charges 34-year-old Charles Phillips with second degree manslaughter and second degree criminal possession of a weapon. Phillips was originally charged with assault, but the grand jury voted to upgrade the charge after two-year-old Zayden Phillips died.

The father was accused of shooting his son while handling a gun in a reckless fashion.
