(Lawrenceville, Georgia)  Gwinnett County Police are investigating a domestic related shooting involving three people that started shortly before 8am this morning at Madison at River Sound Apartments at 980 Walther Blvd in Lawrenceville. Police responded to the apartment complex due to a neighbor who reported a fight taking place at an adjacent apartment. Police made contact with an injured male in the parking lot who reported that he was pistol whipped by his roommate who had fled the scene in a dark colored SUV with a female.
