SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. (AP) — Police say an Arizona woman faces manslaughter charges for chasing down her husband in her SUV, causing him to crash his Harley-Davidson into a light post.

Police say 37-year-old Jennie Jones-Hurdlow is responsible for the death of her husband, 51-year-old Brian Hurdlow, following a fight that began at the couple's home southeast of Tucson.

Witnesses told police in Sierra Vista they saw Jones-Hurdlow drive aggressively and erratically while trying to block her husband from leaving a store on Sunday. Hurdlow managed to leave on his motorcycle but his wife chased him at high speeds.

Police say he was driving over 65 mph when he collided with a light post.

Jones-Hurdlow was arrested on Monday and faces one count of manslaughter. It's unclear whether she has an attorney.
