Deputies said the husband had come over to pick up some belongings. There was some sort of argument right before the shooting. The woman told authorities that the husband pulled a gun on her, and she ended up firing at him with her own firearm, said the Sheriff’s Office. Deputies recovered two handguns at the scene, and also said that it was the woman who called 911 after the shooting.

“From what we understand the man and the woman were married,” said Deputy Brian Van Kleef. “Going through a divorce, having some sort of argument – fired two shots at him and that’s where he died.”

Deputies said the woman remained at the scene as investigators went through the home to start their investigation. They report that she is being cooperative.

No other details about the shooting have been released.
