Summary
Roger Bradford, 60, was charged with first-degree murder and using a firearm in a felony after deputies found his wife, 54-year-old realtor Lisa Bradford, shot dead inside their Aldie, Virginia, home.
A relative alerted authorities shortly after noon and asked them to check the house; by then Bradford had left in a rental car, prompting a search across Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania State Police arrested him in Bedford at about 3:15 p.m., roughly three hours after Loudoun County deputies first responded.
Sheriff Mike Chapman said investigators believe the shooting was domestic, but had not determined whether there were prior incidents; the handgun had not been recovered and searches of the home and car were continuing.
Bradford remained in Pennsylvania awaiting extradition to Virginia, while authorities said no one else was in the home and there was no continuing threat to the public.
