Charles Barkley has offered to pay for the funerals of three children who were killed during a carjacking, Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams said on Monday.

Thomas Reed, 10, Keiearra Williams, 15 and 7-year-old Terrence Moore were killed when a stolen SUV ran onto a sidewalk where they were standing.

From Philly.com:

“Like most Philadelphians, many Americans, and people across the world that heard about this and were moved, 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, Williams said.

Barkley played for the Philadelphia 76ers for the first eight years of his career.
