A 61-year-old man died after being shot by his wife during a domestic dispute at a Tulsa apartment complex early Saturday, a Tulsa Police official confirmed.

Officers received a call around 2:15 a.m. from the Melrose Apartments, at 6309 E. 9th Street, where they found the man with a gunshot wound to the stomach, Tulsa Police Homicide Sgt. Dave Walker said. The man was transported to a local hospital, where he died, Walker said.

The man's 63-year-old wife was interviewed at the Tulsa Police Detective Division, where she was released "pending further investigation," Walker said. The couple had a history of domestic abuse, including an active protective order, but they were living together at the time of the shooting, according to a media release issued around 8 a.m. Saturday.
