  SHERIFF’S DEPUTIES INVESTIGATE SHOOTING

On 12-8-09 at approximately 3:30A.M., Sheriff’s deputies responded to a Canvasback Circle residence in Coventry Twp. for a shooting.  A 61 year old female was shot in the arm by her 59 year old husband.  Allegedly, a grandchild’s toy made noise and awoke the female.  She got out of bed to turn the toy off and was shot by her husband. Her husband saw her silhouette in a hallway and thought she was an intruder.  She was transported to Akron City Hospital.  Names are not being released as no criminal charges have been filed and the investigation is on-going.   

FOLLOW-UP QUESTIONS SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO INSPECTOR
