A 79-year-old Corona man was beaten to death by his son during a domestic dispute at their home on Monday afternoon.
Police from the 110th Precinct in Elmhurst responded to a 911 call of a dispute inside a home at 104-71 43rd Ave., three blocks south of Roosevelt Avenue where they found Leo MacBryde badly beaten by his 47-year-old son who lived at the house, police said.
EMS responded to the crime scene and rushed the wounded retiree to Elmhurst Hospital where he was pronounced dead a short while later.
The 47-year-old man was taken to the 110th Precinct as a person of interest and he was held in custody after questioning.
