A Georgia man allegedly shot and killed a woman, believed to be his ex-wife, before shooting her new husband and himself at a shopping plaza Saturday night, according to police.
A heavy police presence was observed at the Merchants Walk Plaza in Lilburn, according to Fox 5 Atlanta.
Lilburn Police said in a news release that the suspect, 62, entered the Tana Food Mart along Lawrenceville Highway with a pistol.
The suspect then shot and killed a 57-year-old woman and shot another 62-year-old man in the leg at around 6 p.m. The two victims reportedly worked at the store.
After shooting the couple, police said the suspect shot himself in the head.
The suspect and the male victim were transported to Northside Gwinnett Hospital for treatment.
Police said the suspect was listed in critical condition. The male victim was in stable condition.
None of the three people involved in the incident have been publicly identified by police, pending notification of family members.
Investigators said the shooting was a domestic violence incident. The woman is believed to be the ex-wife of the suspect, police said, according to The Atlanta Journal Constitution.
Police said preliminary information indicates the three were in an argument before the suspect allegedly shot the couple and himself, according to WXIA-TV.
The incident remains under investigation.
In a separate incident, new evidence has emerged in the killing of a Georgia couple whose bodies were found in a creek after a magnet fisherman reeled in a gun believed to be connected to the crime.
The Gwinnett County Police Department said in a statement that the gun was found in a creek near the home of the victims, Debbie Collier, 59, and her husband, Steve Collier, 67.
The couple was reported missing on September 10, 2022, and their bodies were found the next day in a creek about a mile from their home.
Police said the gun found by the magnet fisherman is a .38-caliber revolver and that it is being tested to determine if it was used in the killings.
Investigators have not yet said whether they believe the gun is connected to the crime, but they are asking for the public's help in identifying the person who owned the gun.
Anyone with information about the gun or the killings is asked to contact the Gwinnett County Police Department at 770-513-5300.
The killings of Debbie and Steve Collier have shocked the community and have left many questions unanswered.
Investigators are still trying to determine the motive for the killings and are asking for the public's help in solving the case.
