NEW SHARON, Iowa (AP) - A central Iowa woman has been arrested after police say she called 911 to report she had shot and killed her husband days earlier.
Carol Ann Davis, 69, of New Sharon, called the emergency number Wednesday morning to report she had killed her husband at their home on Sunday, the Des Moines Register reported. Deputies who later arrived at the home found Steve Davis, 55, dead with a gunshot wound to his head.
Carol Ann Davis told investigators that she shot her husband in his sleep after he complained of issues at work and asked her to shoot him once he fell asleep, according to court documents.
She appeared in court Thursday morning, and her bond was set at $1 million. Her preliminary hearing is set for May 11.
