NORCROSS — A shooting at a Shell Gas Station in Norcross left one man dead on Sunday.
Officers responded to a report of a shooting at the gas station located at the intersection of Peachtree Industrial Boulevard and Jimmy Carter Boulevard just after 12:40 p.m. Upon arrival, police found the body of a man on the ground behind the gas station, suffering from gunshot wounds.
