Garner Police say they received a 911 call at 1:09am Saturday from a woman who reported that she had shot her husband at 1411 Garner's Station Boulevard, behind a Staples store.

The victim, Abundio G. Gonzalez, who turned 48 on Friday, was dead at the scene, the result of an apparent single gunshot wound to the chest from a handgun, police said.

His wife, Ruby Ashworth Gonzalez, who will turn 60 on Tuesday, was arrested at the scene, and charged with first degree murder.
