BELLMEAD, TX (WCMH) — A man has been charged with first degree murder after police say his wife’s head was found in a freezer in the couple’s home.

According to police, the suspect, Davey Dauzat, 23, acted normal when they were called to the home earlier in the day for a welfare check.

Later, however, police say Dauzat admitted to killing his wife while the couple’s two children were in the home.

“It is a scary though living in a house that I own and right next door there’s a killing. Never been anything like this,” said neighbor James Lee.

The Texas Rangers along with the Bellmead police are investigating.
