Melissa Wolke is charged with murder in the death of Donald Abner. It's still unclear how Abner died, but police say a vicious dog may have been involved.

Rockcastle County dispatchers received a call after a neighbor witnessed Wolke jumping up and down on a man and assaulting him. When officers began to check out what was happening, they say Wolke was on top of a man, hitting him, with a vicious dog nearby.

Officers even got in the back of someone’s truck and had them drive closer so they could stay safe. Troopers say Woke ignored their commands to stop and officers eventually shot her with a stun gun and shot and killed the dog when it began to charge at officers.

A preliminary hearing for January 22.

Wolke's lawyer says they are still waiting for the coroners report with the cause of death to come back. Troopers say it looked like the dog had bitten Abner on the neck and face.

Abner had dog bites on his face and head. Abner was dead on the scene.
