Boynton Beach Woman Accused Of Shooting Husband Over HOA Complaints

 A Boynton Beach woman is accused of shooting her husband multiple times Monday after they got into an argument about HOA complaints.

According to a probable cause affidavit, officers responded to the couple's home shortly after 7 p.m. after receiving a call from the husband saying he had been shot.

Police said 53-year-old Lisa Barreca was found by officers with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to her right thigh.

The husband told officers that he and his wife had gotten into an argument in their kitchen about HOA complaints and the argument escalated, resulting in Barreca going to the garage and retrieving her gun from her car.

Police said the husband slapped and pushed his wife and she then shot him multiple times.

Authorities said the man suffered gunshot wounds to his head, both of his arms, his right leg and his back.

According to the affidavit, Barreca told officers that she was in fear, but showed no signs of emotion or remorse for her husband's injuries and did not ask about his welfare.

Barreca was arrested on an attempted murder charge.  

Boynton Beach police spokeswoman Stephanie Slater said the husband remains hospitalized in stable condition.
