WIFE DIES AFTER BEING STABBED

A 31-year-old woman stabbed Saturday morning outside a Southeast Roanoke grocery store died of her injuries Monday night.

Her husband was in the Roanoke City Jail, charged in connection with the stabbing. He was unable to post his $20,000 bond.

Wendy McCullouch was stabbed in the stomach in the parking lot of the Ninth Street Galaxy grocery store at 10:08 a.m. Saturday. Police did not release information about the incident until Monday.

Police said McCullouch named her husband, James Carl McCullouch, 39, as her assailant before she was taken to Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital.

Police arrested James McCullouch at his house in the 600 block of Dale Avenue Southeast. He was initially charged with malicious wounding.

In another incident over the weekend, police said a 50-year-old Southwest Roanoke man was shot in the buttocks with an air gun Sunday afternoon. Police said James Robinson was walking to his car in the 200 block of Cherry Avenue Northwest about 1:30 p.m. when a man he knew only by his first name shot him twice. Robinson was shot a third time, in the left arm, after he got into his car.

Police said Robinson told them he would go to the hospital later.

Ten minutes later, police arrested a 16-year-old boy in the same area and charged him with shooting at an occupied vehicle in connection with another incident.

About 1:41 p.m., Danielle Boose was driving in the 200 block of Cherry Avenue Northwest when her car was hit by a pellet from an air gun. Boose and her passenger called police, returned to the area of the shooting and identified the 16-year-old boy.

It was not clear if the two incidents were related.
