DELTA TOWNSHIP -- A 29-year-old woman whose husband shot her Saturday afternoon before taking his own life has died.
Eaton County Undersheriff Fred McPhail said the woman, Natasha Marie Garcia, was shot in the thigh and the abdomen with an AK47 assault rifle outside a home in the 5100 block of Ivan Drive, near Elmwood Road.
"She died after several hours of surgery," McPhail said.
Her husband, Ivan Gardea Garcia, 33, shot himself in the head using the same gun. McPhail said the couple had recently split up and that Natasha Garcia was moving in with friends.
He said they had three children, who now are staying with a grandmother.
