Man accused of fatally shooting daughter calls it accidental
ROCKY RIVER, Ohio – A suburban Cleveland man has been charged with murder in the fatal shooting of his adult daughter at the family’s home.
Rocky River police say 63-year-old Jamal Mansour shot 27-year-old Tahani Mansour several times in the head during an argument early Tuesday.
Police Lt. Bill Crates says detectives are trying to determine why the man shot his daughter with a .38-calibre revolver. Tahani Mansour was a licensed pharmacist.
Jamal Mansour told a judge Tuesday that it was an accident.
Court records don’t indicate whether he has an attorney. He’s being held on a $1.5 million bond.
Mansour’s wife and two other children also were there when the shooting occurred.
Crates says Jamal Mansour has no criminal history. He owns a gas station.
A court hearing is scheduled for Thursday.
