Hildesheim: 39-year-old woman found dead in flat – husband arrested
Police officers discovered a lifeless woman in a multi-family house in Hildesheim during the night into Saturday. Officers had been called to the building shortly before midnight after a resident noticed a man behaving suspiciously in the hallway.
The 39-year-old woman's 46-year-old husband initially encountered the police in the stairwell. According to reports, he was "uncooperative", so the officers continued their investigation. In the man's flat they found several children as well as the 39-year-old woman from the Osnabrück district, who was already dead. A doctor could only confirm death. The children were unharmed and were cared for and placed elsewhere.
Investigators are treating the death as a homicide based on the woman's injuries. The 46-year-old is accused of murdering his wife. The circumstances of the act were initially unclear. The exact number of children was also not disclosed initially. Further information was expected to be announced on Monday.
