An Ohio woman, aged 77, has been arrested and charged with reckless homicide after allegedly shooting and killing a 58-year-old man in Cincinnati. The incident occurred on Sunday evening at an apartment on East Tower Drive.

According to Cincinnati Police, the woman, identified as Kathleen Geiger, shot Arthur Osborne once in the pelvic region, causing his death. Geiger claimed that she and Osborne were engaged in what she described as 'harmless banter,' during which Osborne jokingly requested to be shot. Believing her firearm was unloaded, Geiger pointed the gun at Osborne and pulled the trigger, resulting in Osborne being shot in the groin area.
