BATTLE CREEK, Michigan — A woman is dead after being shot with a crossbow in Battle Creek, police say.

The incident happened at a home in the 700 block of Capital Avenue NE on Sunday.

When they arrived, police found 44-year-old Kori-Lee Moser suffering from a crossbow wound. First responders attempted medical care and transported her to Bronson Battle Creek Hospital, but she later died from her injuries. 

The suspect who allegedly shot Moser has been identified as 59-year-old Joel Wagner. He was arraigned Tuesday on open murder charges. 

Police say Wagner and Moser were in a relationship for several years and the two lived in the home together. 

Narcotics are suspected to have contributed to the murder, officials say.
