"I think it's unsettling to know that could happen anywhere just very, very sad," a neighbor told WISN.

Her husband, Braeden, was arrested following a standoff with police.

"It's real scary, especially when you have little kids running around the house and outside in the yard," another neighbor said of the standoff, also speaking to WISN.

"They blocked off Highway 100 and me and the kids were in the back and SWAT was walking through our yards and we came out and there was a man in a silver car and he was putting his hands up and crawling down on the ground."

Ward had last been seen alive on May 4.

Documents obtained by WISN reveal that Braeden Ward admitted to cops that he had stabbed his wife.
