Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said a couple, who was previously married, were involved in an argument when the woman grabbed a gun and shot her ex-husband.
The man, who appeared to be in his 30s or 40s, stepped outside, where he later collapsed and died, Gonzalez said.
The ex-wife then ran toward a neighbor’s home, where she was eventually found.
Gonzalez said the woman was cooperating with authorities. It was not immediately known if she would face any charges.
