DETROIT – Ex-husband Mario Dewayne Green, 53, of Detroit, and alleged accomplice Anthony Lee-Lamont Barnett, 54, of Detroit, have been charged in the fatal shooting of Latricia Green Brown, 40, inside Henry Ford Hospital.

The incident occurred on Friday (Aug. 22) at 9:45 p.m. when Green allegedly entered Henry Ford Hospital located in the 2700 block of West Grand Boulevard in Detroit armed with a gun.

Police said Green knew that he was prohibited from coming to the hospital because of his past stalking and harassment of Green at her job.
