GUY, Ark. (AP) - A 47-year-old man has been arrested in the shooting death of a woman in Guy.

Faulkner County Chief Deputy Matt Rice told reporters deputies arrived at a home in Guy Monday and found 71-year-old Janette Bivens shot to death in the yard and the suspect standing in the yard and holding a gun.

Rice said Bivens’ 73-year-old husband, Don Bivens, was found inside the home with a gunshot wound to the arm and was taken to a hospital.



Rice said two children found at the home were placed in the custody of other family members and the suspect was arrested after questioning.

Court records do not show that the suspect has been formally charged.
