Police said Pranee Chalung, 26, died at Nakhon Si Thammarat Hospital following the 10pm incident at her house in Mueang district.
They are now hunting for the husband, Bancha Issalam, 31, who left the scene on his motorcycle.
Pranee’s mother, Sunee Chalung, 50, said Bancha came to the residence and demanded that she come out to talk to him.
She said Bancha was angry because she’d advised her daughter to divorce him. Sunee claimed he’s a drug addict.
Bancha told police that Bancha had fired his gun at her, but Pranee jumped in the way and was struck in the back.
