A Marshfield woman has been charged with the killing of a Boston Firefighter, and her husband, in their home.
46-year-old Christine Ricci will be arraigned Friday in Plymouth District Court on one count of murder.
Authorities allege that she stabbed her 51-year-old husband, Michael Ricci, at their home on Moraine Street late Thursday afternoon.
Police were called and Ricci was rushed to South Shore Hospital. His wife was subsequently arrested for the stabbing.
“This is an awful tragedy. Michael was a valued member of the Boston Fire Department for 23 years,” said the department in a statement.
“He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.”
