Charges will not be filed “at this time” against a woman arrested for allegedly fatally shooting her husband earlier this week in Lemon Grove, the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office said Thursday.
Gabriela Rose Shepherd, 26, was arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with Monday’s fatal shooting of her husband, 29-year-old Noah David Shepherd, a local pastor.
The shooting was reported about 6 p.m. at a home in the 2500 block of Camino de las Palmas, where Noah Shepherd was found in the residence’s backyard suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, San Diego County sheriff’s Lt. Thomas Seiver said. Medics took the victim to a hospital, where was pronounced dead.
