ARAPAHOE COUNTY - A woman is dead after her husband allegedly killed her and then tried to kill himself overnight, deputies say.
Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson says 47-year-old Russell Brunecz called deputies around 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday, telling them he shot and killed his wife, 64-year-old Monique Brunecz, at their home in the 23800 block of East Archer Place after an argument.
Grayson says they took Brunecz into custody without incident, and say he had sustained self-inflicted knife wounds from an apparent suicide attempt, but his injuries were not considered to be life threatening.
Brunecz is being held without bond at the Arapahoe County Detentions Center on the felony charge of first-degree murder.
9Wants to Know discovered Russell Brunecz is a mechanic at Frontier Airlines, according to LinkedIn. We also discovered Monique Brunecz was a language arts teacher in the Aurora Public School District, but was let go in 2006 after being listed as a probationary employee, according to school board meeting minutes.
