The search continues for suspects after a man was shot and killed Tuesday morning at a location in the 1300 block of Brown Street at Old Athens Road in Gainesville.
A caller to Hall County 911 reported the shooting around 10:25 a.m. The injured man was rushed to the hospital but died.
Deputies initially acted on a report that two people involved in the shooting had barricaded themselves in an apartment in the J Building of the Harrison Square complex on Athens Street. The Hall County Sheriff’s Office activated SWAT and secured the building to ensure the safety of local residents. Team members eventually entered the unit where the pair were believed to be hiding, but found no sign of the suspects.
“At this time, Hall County Sheriff’s Office investigators are following up on viable leads as they continue to search for the suspect,” says Hall County Sheriff’s Public Information Officer BJ Williams.
Williams says this incident is isolated.
