Louisiana-Man shot, killed by wife tried running down family with truck, police say :: 11/24/2014
An eastern New Orleans man fatally shot by his wife was wounded after attempting to strike his family with his truck during a domestic dispute, New Orleans police said Saturday.
Steven Swanson, 50, died Friday night at a local hospital shortly after being shot multiple times by his 40-year-old wife, police said. The incident was reported at 8:09 p.m. outside the couple's home in the 5000 block of Coronado Drive.
NOPD spokesman Officer Frank Robertson said Saturday the incident remained under investigation as detectives work to determine whether the homicide would be ruled justified. No arrests have been made, and Robertson said Swanson's wife was cooperating with investigators.
According to police, Swanson and his wife were arguing and the man refused to let the woman leave. She told police that as she and her children moved to get into her car, Swanson "tried to hit them with his truck." She told police she pulled a gun and fired at her husband in self defense.
Police did not disclose how many children were at the scene of the domestic dispute or give their ages. Stay with NOLA.com for more on this story as details develop.
