ANGOLA, Ind.
Northeastern Indiana police say an Angola woman fatally attacked her husband with an ax, striking him several times as the couple's two teenage boys were at home.
Court documents state that 44-year-old Norma Mote summoned police to the couple's home early Friday and told dispatchers she had just killed her husband with an ax.
Police found 56-year-old Kevin Mote dead in a second-floor bedroom. The Steuben County coroner's office ruled his death due to numerous ax strikes to the head.
Norma Mote is charged with murder and is being held without bail at the Steuben County Jail. Police say they don't know why Mote attacked her husband.
Neighbors say the Mote family was quiet and kept to themselves in the area just outside Angola city limits about 40 miles north of Fort Wayne.
