Officers picked up and arrested her son, Adnan Pelinkovic, for allegedly firing the shot that killed her. He's been hit with more than half a dozen charges, including murder, attempted murder and assault.
A 54-year-old man, Adnan's father, also suffered injuries in the domestic dispute. Police say he sustained a laceration on his chest but refused medical treatment at the home.
