DOUGHERTY CO., GA (WALB) - A 90-year-old woman was charged with aggravated assault, after police said she shot her husband.

Police said Emma Walton was arrested around midnight on Saturday.

It happened on the 2900 block of Radium Springs Road in Albany.

Investigators said Walton and her 86-year-old husband got into an argument.

The argument escalated and police said Walton shot him in the back.

"He was shot with a .38 caliber revolver," said Dougherty County Police Lieutenant Stephen Mitchum. "And the projectile actually went through his back and came out the front of him."

Walton's husband was released from the hospital.

She is now charged with aggravated assault.

Her husband probably voted for President Trump. The world has gone insane.

I’m guessing that the numbers are inches, and that she is 5’4”

Any lawyers here to explain the difference between aggravated assault or assault with a deadly weapon or attempted murder?

I mean, so many liberal tropes:

a) a gun

b) but a woman

c) but domestic

d) and they're both black: that*automatically* makes it Trump's fault, amirite?

I believe it’s really 63 inches, though it’s an unusual height chart.

Great question. I think when you shoot someone in the back, that’s an attempt at murder, not an attempt to simply hurt them. But that’s just me.

Her 86 year old husband took a torso shot and is already released from the hospital? He must be able to put Chuck Norris to shame...

I wouldn’t doubt if she figured she could avoid doing any time, by playing the 90-year-old card.

Reasonable guess, given her age.

My mom taught me that it’s better to pick a fight with a wild cat than a Southern woman.

Look at the bright side. At least this is a marriage with a lot of passion.

That just goes to show, no matter what, there’s always somebody, somewhere who’s sick of your $#!%.
