Death by stiletto

A woman allegedly beat her boyfriend to death with the spiked heel of a stiletto shoe.
Thelma Carter, 46, struck her live-in boyfriend Robert Higdon, 58, with the shoe at their trailer park home in Augusta, Georgia, police said.
Authorities are unsure how many times Mr Higdon was hit with the shoe before he died.
Carter has been charged with murder.
A post-mortem examination is set to be carried out today at the Augusta Crime Lab.
Investigators believe Mr Higdon was killed sometime on Sunday evening after he and Carter rowed inside their home.
Richmond County sheriff's Captain Scott Peebles told the Augusta Chronicle that police found the body on Monday morning after Carter called them.
She told investigators she had returned home to find Mr Higdon dead.
