CLAIRTON, Pa. -- A local postal worker is accused of killing her husband with a butcher knife.
Michelle Coulson, 49, was arraigned overnight.
Authorities said Michelle and her husband John were drinking at the American Legion in Clairton Thursday.
Police said when they returned to their home in the 700 block of Lafayette Street, they started fighting.
According to police, they both grabbed butcher knives.
Michelle stabbed John multiple times, police said.
Neighbors said the couple often fought.
James Long said, "I didn't get in anybody's business. You know, arguments here and there but I didn't pay attention to what they were arguing about or what was going on."
"Bits and pieces here and there about them having quarrels of arguing this and that. But I don't think it was really much to amount to anything,” another neighbor said.
Michelle is being held in the Allegheny County Jail.
Her hearing is scheduled for Nov. 17.
