An Indiana woman is making headlines this week after she was accused of shooting her husband while he was on the toilet. The 69-year-old Indianapolis resident reportedly flew into a rage after she saw her husband outside speaking to one of their neighbors. She then got so furious that she grabbed a gun and began waving it around while her husband was in the bathroom before shooting him in the leg.
According to Lawyer Herald, the situation escalated quickly when the Indiana woman barged into the bathroom while her husband was on the toilet. She revealed to him that she was unhappy that he had been talking to their neighbor and appeared to be in a rage over the situation. However, the man reportedly believed that his wife was joking, and she quickly proved that wasn’t the case when she fired the gun, hitting him in the right leg.
“You think I’m playing?” the wife allegedly asked her husband before firing the shot. He later told police that he actually did think she was pulling an elaborate and over-the-top joke. He even said that he smiled and laughed at her before the realization. Sadly, it ended in injury for him.

Upon seeing the news, people had plenty to say about the strange crime.
“I see a book and podcast in her future,” one person commented.
“Another case of someone thinking they own somebody! Your partner may cheat on you. It’s a part of life. Move on,” another wrote.
“Nowhere is safe,” a third person said.
“I’m thinking did he wash his hands,” joked one person.
“Yeah it’s time for him to leave her! That marriage is over! He’s not going to be safe! Next time she could end up killing him and all for talking to a neighbor!! That’s psychotic!” a fifth comment read.
Others made obviously toilet jokes, and even claimed that the man would never again be able to use the bathroom without having a traumatic flashback of what his wife did to him.
The Indiana woman was said to have been arrested and taken into custody on the charge of battery with a deadly weapon. However, she refused to speak to police under she had a lawyer. Formal charges have yet to be filed. However, after allegedly shooting her man on the toilet in a rage, it seems that she may be looking at some major legal consequences. Meanwhile, her husband was transported to the hospital.Â
