A Wichita woman has been released from a hospital and booked into jail for first degree murder for the death of her son during a standoff in late January.
43-year-old Kylee Hodges was booked into the Sedgwick County jail on Monday. She was shot by officers after an eight-hour standoff on January 29th at an apartment in the 8400 block of West Central. Police said she walked toward officers and pointed a handgun at them. During a court appearance Tuesday, Hodges was formally charged and her bond was set at $1.5 million.
Police found 14-year-old Claude Hodges in a bedroom, dead from a gunshot wound.
The Kansas Bureau of Investigation has been looking into the officer-involved shooting.
