Luis Montoya, 52, was arrested at 4101 E. U.S. Highway 50, Lot 508, after his sister, Maria Montoya, 55, was found dead inside the home, according to a Garden City Police Department press release. Police responded to a call at 8:34 p.m. from a female who was crying and said she needed police but did not say the reason, police said. An officer from the Garden City Police Department was nearby and responded to the location shortly after the call was received. Police said that when the officer approached the residence, three people who stood outside told him a woman had been murdered inside the mobile home. When the officer entered the residence, he found Maria Montoya on the kitchen floor with injuries to her chest. Finney County EMS and the Finney County coroner responded to the residence and pronounced Maria Montoya dead at the scene. The same officer who first responded found Luis Montoya outside the residence, according to the GCPD press release. Police said they believe Luis Montoya and Maria Montoya were involved in several arguments with each other throughout the day over responsibilities within the home. During the last argument, Luis Montoya allegedly grabbed a knife from the kitchen and stabbed Maria Montoya in the chest. Luis Montoya was taken into custody and lodged in the Finney County Jail.

| Garden blooms on a small condo patio in Beachwood - Cleveland Plain Dealer Posted: 26 Aug 2009 04:21 PM PDT by Roxanne Washington/Plain Dealer ReporterWhen Robert Geuder of Beachwood shows off his garden to friends and neighbors, it might be the shortest garden tour on record. But he enjoys it. Geuder grows hostas, as many gardeners do these days. Red and yellow celosia bloom side by side. Begonias, zinnias and impatiens are healthy and colorful, too. What's unusual is that Geuder gardens on his 18-by-22-foot concrete patio. Not the most optimal space, sun and soil conditions, but he makes the most of it. "For a long time, I did nothing with this patio," says Geuder, who lives with his wife, Laura, on the first floor of a high-rise condominium building on busy Cedar Road. "Little by little, I starting buying flowers, and it just took off from there."
Now, Geuder posts a note inviting neighbors to stop by to see what he's done when they have time -- and people come. These days, garden industry experts refer to gardens as outdoor "rooms" that are a extension of the home, and that's how Geuder's patio garden feels -- like a cozy, colorful, open-air room. The patio faces the parking lot of the building complex, but about a dozen tall evergreens around the patio provide a natural wall that the couple enjoy seeing, instead of rows of cars. Just inside the evergreens is enough ground space for Geuder to plant hostas, hydrangea, a small rosebush and other plants that manage to come back every summer. He even grows tomatoes. "The soil back here is terrible," Geuder says. "It's all gravel." He fills his patio with about a dozen baskets of annuals. But what makes Geuder's patio garden unique is his pond. Concrete and small space notwithstanding, Geuder had to have one. "I liked having the flowers, but one day I just decided I want a pond," he says. His gurgling, above-ground pond is filled with water lettuce, dwarf papyrus, umbrella palms and other plants not common to patios. Goldfish live in the pond until they're moved to an inside aquarium in winter, when he drains the pond and turns it upside down until the next summer. Lights beam on small statues and figures, especially Asian-inspired accents, and tinted lights enhance the overall setting. "It's relaxing to sit out here at night, especially with the lights on," Geuder says. Geuder and his wife have lived in the condo for 28 years (they are the third-longest residents), and he manages the complex. Every summer means new annuals, sometimes untried, which can be expensive, but worth it. Entire books are devoted to tips on gardening in small spaces. But Geuder doesn't read them. "No two summers are ever alike," he says. "I just go and get what I like. I don't pick them with any special color or anything like that in mind."
