Police in Leesburg are questioning a 57-year-old woman in the death of her husband after his body was found Saturday morning in the couple's home.

Police would not say how the woman's husband, 63, died, though they said an autopsy was pending.

His body was found just before 6 a.m. in the couple's home in the 1600 block of Chickasaw Place NE.

If the case is ruled a homicide it would be the first homicide in 2013 for the town of Leesburg.
