Woman Arrested in Shooting Death of Husband

VINITA, Okla. (AP) — The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation says the wife of a Craig County man has been arrested on a manslaughter complaint in connection with the man's shooting death.

The OSBI says 48-year-old Glendora Beisley was arrested in the shooting death of 65-year-old John Beisley at the couple's home near Vinita.

Online court records on Sunday did not show that charges have been filed against Glendora Beisley. A phone call to a number listed for John Beisley was answered with a recording saying the number was disconnected.

The OSBI said the shooting was reported about 3 a.m. Saturday and that the sheriff's office asked the OSBI to assist in the investigation.

The OSBI said John Beisley's body was sent to the state medical examiner's office to determine the cause of death.
