Could somebody please de-code the first line for me?

A family his planning their second child’s funeral after a woman was killed.

At the end of the article:
“Chambers lost his son in a horrific car accident a couple of years ago.”

The son of the guy was also killed within the last year from a car wreck. An event not related to the murder of his daughter.

Read the story and it decodes itself. Funny how so many folks prefer to critique the grammar of the writers than to grasp the import of the story. Terrible event and your biggest concern is the structure of a sentence?

I too wondered but then decided his should have been is. A family is planning their second child's funeral after a woman is killed. Spellcheck wouldn't have caught it and the author apparently did not notice when proofreading or simply did not proofread.
