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.

She’s a cougar.
” I wuz waitin’ fo him to turn around but he was jus too dam slo”
“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 thought the same thing. From a .38, not some mouse gun.
I would hope also with domestic violence so her gun gets taken away. If we have to live under idiot laws they damn better be applied when women break them.
Like you say likely a round nose - hollow point would have likely kept him down a few more days.
Probably some Saturday night special with 30 year old ammo.
Aggravated assault!? WTF! How about attempted murder!?
That’ll do it.
I’m guessing the marriage has had some rocky spots in the past.
It did seem very obvious it would be.
I had to laugh at this article. Assuming they have been married a long time, I guess at some point you get fed up and decide not to take it anymore.
