I didn't even know he had a brother.
Allegheny County police charged a Dormont man with homicide after his wife was found dead in their home this morning.
David Angle, 62, is being held in the Allegheny County Jail awaiting arraignment on the homicide charge, county police Lt. Andrew Schurman said.
Mr. Angle is the older brother of former Olympian and professional wrestler Kurt Angle, his manager Dave Hawk confirmed.
Dormont police and paramedics responded at 6:24 a.m. to the 1000 block of Peermont Avenue for report of a domestic disturbance and a woman not breathing. There they found Donna Angle, 57, unresponsive on the floor of the living room.
She was taken to St. Clair Hospital and pronounced dead at 7:13 a.m.
"Due to the situation Kurt would appreciate if you can honor his family's request for privacy at his difficult time," Mr. Hawk said in a text message.
In an interview with police, David Angle said he and wife were in the living room at about 3 a.m. this morning when she offered him some vodka, county homicide Detective Scott Towne wrote in a criminal complaint. He told her he didn't want any, but she continued to "badger him about drinking with her," and it escalated into an argument, the complaint continued.
"He said all of their arguments revolved around alcohol and added that he has 'anger issues,'" the detective wrote.
After his wife tried to kick him, he "grabbed both of her arms, pulled her off the couch, put his foot on her chest and then pulled," the complaint said. He told police he couldn't recall how long he did that but said "it was not for minutes."
He told police she became unconscious and he tried unsuccessfully to revive her before calling 911.
An Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office supervisor said Ms. Angle's autopsy would be later today.
The couple bought the home where she was found dead today nearly 23 years ago, county assessment records show.
