DOTHAN, Ala. (AP) - Houston County sheriff's deputies say the fatal shooting of a man in the Pansey community near Dothan was result of an ongoing domestic dispute and was an apparent case of self defense.
Sheriff's Capt. Antonio Gonzalez told The Dothan Eagle newspaper that 42-year-old Ricky Ingram died early Sunday in his father-in-law's yard in the Pansey community.
Gonzalez said a preliminary investigation showed Clinton Hobbs shot Ingram, his son-in-law, when he came into Hobbs' yard and came toward him with a knife.
Houston County Coroner Robert Byrd said Ingram apparently died after being shot in the chest.
Authorities said Ingram also threatened Hobbs' daughter, who was Ingram's wife. Gonzalez said the husband and wife were having domestic issues.
