Double Homicide by Vehicle – Jimmy Carter Blvd

(Norcross, Georgia)  Two men are deceased and other man has been injured after being hit by a pickup in a billiards parking lot.  Shortly after 2am, officers assigned to the West Precinct were dispatched to a pedestrian accident with injuries in the parking lot of the Corona Billiards at 5265 Jimmy Carter Boulevard in unincorporated Norcross.  When officers arrived, they found two men deceased in the parking lot.  Another man was transported to a local hospital.

Witnesses followed the driver who fled the scene.  An off-duty officer (working security at a nearby convenience store) conducted a traffic stop and took the driver into custody about 1 mile away on South Norcross Tucker Road just past Old Norcross Tucker Road.
