A Wakefield man is being held without bail today after authorities say he fatally shot his wife at their home.
David McCall, 72, called 911 at about 8:15 a.m. to report a murder-suicide at his 493 Lowell St. home, said Cara O’Brien, a spokeswoman for Middlesex District Attorney Gerard Leone.
McCall’s wife, Elaine, 69, was taken to Melrose-Wakefield Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, O’Brien said. She added she was shot once in the chest.
David McCall was arrested at his home, O’Brien said. He was arraigned on a murder charge in Malden District Court and sent for observation to Bridgewater State Hospital.
O’Brien said officials are investigating whether the suspect sustained any injuries.
Police have never been called to the couple’s home for any issues, O’Brien said.
