Police arrest estranged wife in Ohio man’s death

WINDHAM, Ohio – Police found a man dead at his northeast Ohio home on Thanksgiving Day and have arrested his estranged wife and another man on aggravated murder charges.

The Portage County Sheriff’s Office says foul play was suspected when authorities found 37-year-old Blake Wolfe of Windham at his home on Thursday afternoon. The office didn’t report an apparent cause of death. An autopsy was planned for Friday.

Sheriff David Doak said in a statement that authorities arrested 40-year-old Traci Wolfe of Paris township and 42-year-old Thomas Walters of Shalersville township. Both were charged with aggravated murder early Friday morning. It wasn’t immediately clear whether the two had retained legal counsel.

The sheriff’s office said the investigation is ongoing.
