BREAKING: A woman in Newton, Massachusetts, is dead following an assault at her home Saturday night, allegedly by her husband, officials say.

A woman has died after she was allegedly assaulted by her husband in their Newton, Massachusetts, home, Saturday night, just two days after a restraining order was issued by the court, officials said.

The Middlesex District Attorney and Newton Chief of Police confirmed Sunday that Richard Hanson, 64, of Newton, had been charged with assault with intent to murder and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon causing serious bodily injury in connection with Nancy Hanson's death at their Brookline Street home.

The district attorney said a minor who was inside the home at the time of the assault called 911 to report what was happening. Newton police responded to the reported ongoing assault around 8:21 p.m. and found 54-year-old Nancy Hanson suffering from apparent blunt force injuries. Nancy Hanson was taken to Brigham and Women's Hospital where she died from her injuries, officials said.
