HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FL -- An Apollo Beach man has been arrested and charged with the attempted murder of his wife.
Christopher Hanney, 49, is accused of setting his wife on fire in their home on Tuesday.
Investigators say a domestic dispute broke out inside the couple's home on Oxford Garden Circle. They believe Hanney doused his wife with a flammable liquid and then set her and their home on fire.
When officers arrived they found 26-year-old Audrey Mabrey suffering from severe burns. Hanney was in the back yard.
The home was gutted by the fire.
On October 20, deputies were home on a report of domestic violence, but Mabrey did not want to press charges against her husband.
She's now listed in Critical condition at Tampa General Hospital.
Hanney is being held without bond on a charge of attempted first-degree murder.
