A Florida woman who was trying to leave her husband is dead after police say he refused to sign divorce papers — and then shot her in their home.

Lamar Bryant, 41, is accused of first-degree premeditated murder in the death of his wife Takeshia Bryant, 42, who died Tuesday after her husband allegedly shot her to death in their home in Orlando. According to local NBC affiliate WESH, the victim’s family has asked that she be referred to by her maiden name, Takeshia Eads.

A probable cause affidavit reviewed by Law&Crime says that Eads “recently filed for divorce from Lamar Bryant however, he refused to sign the divorce paperwork.”

According to the affidavit, the violence unfolded shortly after 3:30 p.m. on March 25, after Bryant picked up the couple’s daughter from school — and appeared to be under the influence.
