A SWAT team was summoned when Kayleigh Hustosky didn’t respond to police phone calls. She was found dead several hours later after a robot and drones failed to detect any movement inside the home.

Dylan Hustosky was flown to a Cleveland hospital where he’s in stable condition.

The couple’s 3-year-old son was away visiting relatives when Dylan Hustosky was shot.
