A man has been charged with killing his wife, who was found dead by police in a northeast Edmonton home Thursday afternoon.
Edmonton police said officers responded to a domestic-related call at a home near 75A Street and 166 Avenue in the Mayliewan neighbourhood at around 4:30 p.m.
Upon arrival, the officers discovered Edmonton woman Daniela Roman, 51, dead in the basement. A news release Friday called it a tragic death.
A man in the home was taken into custody.
An autopsy was done Friday morning. The medical examiner said the cause of death was multiple blunt and crush injuries with the manner being homicide.
On Friday night, police were still at the home investigating and an officer could be seen carrying bags out of the house.
EPS homicide investigators have since charged the husband of the woman, 54-year-old Vasile Roman of Edmonton, with second-degree murder.
No other details were released.
