Barkley has offered his support to a family mourning a devastating tragedy.
On July 25, carjackers in Philadelphia lost control of their stolen vehicle, killing three young siblings and badly injuring their mother. It's an unspeakable, irretrievable tragedy, but Charles Barkley is doing what he can to help. Via CBS Philly:
"All Philadelphians have been moved to tears by this crime," said District Attorney Seth Williams.
Williams said former NBA player Philadelphia and 76er Charles Barkley has even reached out and offered to pay for the funeral of the three children.
"I received a telephone call from Sixers legend Charles Barkley," said Williams. "Like most Philadelphians, many Americans and people across the world, he wanted me to know that he wanted to pay for the funeral for these three children and I put him in touch with the family so he can do that."
The children were hit while running a fruit stand to raise money for their church. Their mother remains in critical condition.
