Brother of Wrestler kurt Angel Jailled in wife's homicide over Vodka

The brother of pro wrestler and former Olympian Kurt Angle has been jailed on charges he killed his wife during an argument about vodka at their home in the Pittsburgh suburbs.

David Angle, 62, told Allegheny County homicide detectives that he started arguing with 57-year-old Donna Angle about 3 a.m. Sunday after she offered him some vodka.

''He told her he didn't want any vodka but she insist he must drink with her, detectives wrote in a criminal complaint. ''He said all of their arguments revolved around alcohol and added that he has 'anger issues.'''


The suspect told police his wife tried to kick him during the argument, so he dragged her off a couch by grabbing both of her arms, then put his foot on her chest while continuing to pull her arms, the complaint said.

Angle said he couldn't remember how long he did that, but told police ''it was not for minutes,'' the detectives wrote.

When his wife went unconscious and he couldn't revive her, Angle called 911 and was told how to perform CPR, police said. That happened about 6:20 a.m., according to the complaint.
He will face a preliminary hearing Oct. 2
