AN Apsley man was charged with one count of murder after a Goroke woman was shot dead on Sunday night.
Michael Kelly, 47, of Apsley was remanded in custody to appear in Horsham Magistrate’s Court today.
Homicide squad detectives searched a Goroke home, on the corner of Barrack and Station Streets, yesterday.
They also searched a residence in Apsley, retrieving a shirt for DNA testing.
Police allege Kelly fired a shot into the Goroke home on Sunday about 10.30pm, before entering through the back door of the property.
Police allege Kelly then shot the woman before chasing another man, believed to be his intended target, firing several more shots.
Kelly faced an out-of-session court hearing in Horsham on Monday night, but the matter was adjourned because Kelly had no legal representation.
