Police investigate homicide at Peachtree Corners hotel

PEACHTREE CORNERS — The Gwinnett County Police Department is investigating an early morning homicide that left one man dead at a local hotel.  

Shortly before 8 a.m. Sunday, officers were dispatched to a “person shot” call at the Home Towne Suites at 7049 Jimmy Carter Boulevard in Peachtree Corners. When officers arrived, they found a man with gunshot wounds inside a room in the 300 Building.  The man died from his injuries. 

Investigators say they believe that there were two men originally staying in the room.

According to The Gwinnett County Police Department, at some point, the two men called a woman. She arrived at an unknown time. Earlier this morning, that woman called another man to the room. That man arrived with another woman. 

Police say, an argument broke out, and one of the two original residents in the room shot the man. The suspects fled the room. 

The exact motive for the crime is still unknown. Investigators would like to speak with any other residents or passersby who may have heard or seen the crime.
