A woman shot and killed her live-in boyfriend during a Christmas Eve fight at their home in the Golden Valley, Arizona, authorities say.

Mohave County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Trish Carter said deputies responded at 10 a.m. Saturday to the incident at a residence on the 3300 block of North Aztec Drive.

Officers determined that 51-year-old Melinda Louise Pedigo shot Sanford Allen Hornstein, 55, in the torso during a dispute, Carter said.

She said a county attorney’s office review of the ongoing investigation will determine whether Pedigo will be charged and prosecuted.
