Tujunga Woman Held in Husband’s Slaying
A 46-year-old Tujunga woman was arrested Sunday on suspicion of beating her husband to death with a bottle, police said.
Thomas Chapman, 52, was found lying on the floor beside a bottle that may have been used to kill him in his apartment in the 10000 block of Samoa Avenue, said Lt. Thomas Maeweather of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Foothill station. His wife, Michelle Chapman, was arrested on suspicion of murder, Maeweather said.
Domestic arguments “seemed to be an ongoing thing with them,” Detective Richard Knapp said.
