An 88-year-old man allegedly shot his elderly wife in the chest while she was lying in a hospital bed. According to police William Dresser, 88, walked into the rehab unit of Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center, Nevada, yesterday morning before shooting his wife once in the chest with a pistol. Dresser was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and has been placed on suicide watch by officers. His wife, who has not been identified, suffered life-threatening injuries and was transferred to Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno.
