UNION CITY (BCN) -- A Union City woman was charged with murder Tuesday for allegedly fatally shooting her husband at their home on Sunday night, authorities said.

They said responding officers found Sorin Chereji suffering from multiple gunshot wounds and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
In addition to murder, Sara Chereji is charged with several weapons enhancements, including causing her husband's death by intentionally discharging a firearm.
