Deputy Marshal Christopher Corbin and his brother, Deputy Marshal William Corbin, were shot and killed while attempting to arrest a man for shooting and damaging a postal box in South Carolina. They located the man hiding in the loft of a barn, and as they attempted to remove him, the suspect's family members opened fire on the marshals, killing both.
The suspect was arrested and sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Deputy Marshal Christopher Corbin was survived by his expectant wife and daughter. His son was born approximately two months after his murder.
