JEMISON, AL: Authorities late yesterday afternoon charged a man with murder in the shooting death of his wife at a Jemison doctor's office earlier today.
Eric "Heath" Price, a 26-year-old former U.S. Marine, was taken to UAB Hospital where he remains under police guard. Price's family members say he was wounded during the takedown, but law enforcement officials say Price shot himself in the head and is expected to survive.
Jemison Police Chief Shane Fulmer identified the victim as 24-year-old Leaj Jarvis Price. She died on the scene from a gunshot wound to the head.
Price apparently posted on Facebook shortly after the shooting of his wife. "im sorry everyone, its been real, good bye and i love you all" and "I dei today."
