A suspected case of mistaken identity has left a 32-year-old man dead during a night-time romantic encounter in a Northeast Philadelphia apartment this week. Marc Carrion was shot in the head inside a unit at the Holme Circle Apartments Monday night after police say the man who lived there found the victim hiding in his daughter's bedroom. Carrion was rushed to Aria Health Torresdale Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries early Tuesday morning. nvestigators believe Charles Jordan, 41, opened fire on Carrion because he took him for an intruder, but those who knew the 32-year-old claim the man had been invited into the house by Jordan's 20-year-old daughter, reported the Philadelphia Daily News.

Full Title: Father shoots dead daughter's 'lover' as he crouched in her bedroom because he thought the man was an intruder

Poor writing. Was the father crouching in his daughter's bedroom? As for the outcome, I'm torn on this one. As a father, I empathize with the dad but the girl is 20. Maybe he really thought the guy was an intruder.

If the daughter was dead how could she have a lover?
Wait, sorry I asked.

Editor! Editor! Is there an Editor in the house?....................

[Red Badger]

And why was the father crouching in her room?.............

The daughter is dead? As Hildabeast would say, “What difference does it make?”

[wyowolf]

We are taught to try to get control of the situation rather than just blowing away when we see something... IF the lover tried to attack him or something thats a different story...

Marc Carrion..................yep................

Why not: “Man kills daughter’s lover due to mistaken identity.”

Marc Carrion reduced to carrion.

Maybe she should have went to his house instead?

From the headline I thought the daughter was dead and the father killed the murderer. This headline is poor in more ways than one.

Do editors understand English any more? or they all illegal immigrants now?

Seems pretty clear to me. Father shoots dead the boy friend of his dead daughter from a crouching postion in her bed room. I mean much easier shot than from a standing position don’t you think?

He did his daughter and society in general a huge favor. He should get a reward.

I was going to make a snarky joke about the American’s propensity for mangling the English language, then I noticed to my shame that it was a British news site. How embarrassing.

This is an unfortunate development.
At the same time, Marc Carrion needed to be far more sensible about creeping into windows at night. Sad news.

[BenLurkin]

Smart man. He made a smaller target for return fire.

I guess the boyfriend now fully understands the father’s views on pre-marital sex...
