Detective Lieut.

John Burton of the homicide squad said the 32- year-old woman underwent today's second batch tests at her request. The husband, Robert, 34, was wounded fatally Monday night.

Police said they had questioned and released a 6-foot-2 young construction worker who was quoted as saying he had dated Mrs. Kehl while her husband, a tobacco salesman, was out of town.

He added the construction worker's alibi that he was in his room at a boarding house Monday night was supported by his landlady. Lt. Burton said Mrs. Kehl, questioned for seven hours Tuesday and two hours Tuesday night, stuck to her original story that she and her husband had been abducted from near their home in Flint by a strange man who forced her to drive them to a dumping ground on the outskirts of Flint where Kehl was shot. Police said Kehl was shot three times but they quoted Mrs.

Kehl as saying she heard only one shot as she sat in the car and covered her face with her hands. Mrs. Kehl said the stranger then ordered her to drive him back into Flint where he jumped from the car at an Intersection near a railroad staiion and fled into the darkness. Lt. Burton laid Mrs.

Kehl acknowledged she had dated the construction worker. The detective said she also told at frequent arguments with her husband but that most of them were due to his drinking. Mrs. N. Gerovac Dies Tuesday in Brookfield, III.
