Atlanta, GA: Husband Kills Paraplegic Wife

ATLANTA (AP) -- Police say a 68-year-old paraplegic Atlanta woman has been shot and killed by her husband and another person is in critical condition.

Atlanta police homicide Det. Lt. Keith Meadows said Rochelle Phillips, who was wheelchair-bound, died at the scene. He said her 79-year-old husband is also suspected of shooting his stepson in the back of the neck when the younger man came home and tried to wrestle the gun away.

The man reportedly confessed to police and was taken into custody. The stepson is in stable condition at Grady Hospital.
