(IP) The es tranged wife of an Air Force sergeant flagged down her hus band's car, got in and shot him to death Thursday night at Lowry Air Base. The alleged slayer, Mrs. Norah Anette Lloyd, 26, was arrested shortly afterward and held at the air base. Authorities said Mrs. Lloyd arrived Thursday by plane from Chicago and went to the apart ment of her husband, S. Sgt John Lloyd Jr. He was not there. Mrs. Lloyd left their three-month-old child with a neighbor and went to the air base where she spotted Lloyd's car, stopped it and got in. Moments later, authorities said, the car swerved off the road and crashed into a fence. Mrs. Lloyd emerged uninjured. Lloyd had been fatally shot. The FBI immediately entered the case since the shooting oc curred on government property and a civilian was involved.
