A $50,000 cash-only bond was set Tuesday for a Pine Bluff man accused of shooting his father Christmas Day.
Pine Bluff District Judge John Kearney set the bond after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge Cameron Smith, 31, with first-degree domestic battery.
Reading from an affidavit from Detective Mike Merritt, Deputy Prosecutor Shana Alexander said police responded to a reported shooting on South Cedar Street.
Alexander said Smith has a pending case of aggravated robbery. He was ordered to have no contact with his father until the case is settled and told to come back to court on Jan. 31.
