Man killed in Bonn Judge orders arrest warrant for wife
Bonn · A conflict on Sunday evening escalated and led to the death of a 49-year-old man. His 60-year-old wife is believed to have stabbed him with a knife during an argument.
Authorities say they received an emergency call from the 60-year-old woman at 10:15 pm on Sunday night. When medics arrived, they treated the seriously injured man and rushed him to the hospital in an ambulance. According to police reports, he had been stabbed in the chest and he died of his wounds sometime after arriving in the hospital.
The 60-year-old wife was arrested and brought before Bonn District Court on Monday afternoon. The judge issued an arrest for manslaughter in the afternoon. A homicide unit is investigating the death, working closely with city prosecution. GA has information that the cause of the deadly drama was jealousy.
Neighbors of the couple who lived in the quiet residential street in Küdinghoven were apparently oblivious to what had happened. The house where the couple had lived alone since their two children moved out was reachable only through a small private street.
One neighbor said, “They are actually really nice people. Especially both of their kids were always very nice.”
