Kingsburg woman charged in death of husband

FRESNO, Calif.

Investigators say 48-year-old Kathryn Ellis shot and killed Robert Ellis last week in the couple's home.

Investigators say Ellis told them an intruder shot her husband. The Fresno County Sheriff's Office says physical evidence in the home points to Kathryn Ellis as the shooter.
