Dad Faces Arraignment

A Port Huron father accused of killing his teenage son and wounding two younger children is set for arraignment today. Prosecutors say 44-year-old Jeffery Smerer opened fire inside a Glenview Court home around 6 a.m. on Thursday. Police say the children’s mother and Smerer’s adult son fought him off, preventing more injuries. The 17-year-old died, while a 13-year-old boy and 12-year-old girl remain hospitalized. Court records show Smerer had been due in court later that morning on an indecent exposure case involving a young child.
