STORY 1: Police investigating murder of woman shot at south Gwinnett shopping center
A woman was fatally shot Saturday night at a shopping center in Snellville. Gwinnett Police officers responded to the incident at 3541 Stone Mountain Highway around 7:30 p.m. and found the suspect being subdued by witnesses. The suspect was arrested, and the victim was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities have not released the identities of those involved or a motive, but it may be domestic-related. The suspect is being questioned. Police urge anyone with information to contact detectives or Crime Stoppers, referencing Case No. 24-0042372.
STORY 2: New Lawsuits Filed to stop Mulberry city council elections
Stephen Hughes is trying to stop the new city of Mulberry's council elections following his unsuccessful attempt to block the city's creation. He has filed lawsuits against Gwinnett County and its elections board, arguing that Senate Bill 333, which established the referendum, violates the Georgia Constitution. The lawsuits aim to halt the November 5 council elections. If successful, a judge's ruling could prevent Mulberry from becoming Gwinnett County's 17th city on January 1, 2025. Mulberry supporters argue the lawsuits are driven by developers opposed to the city's formation, while Hughes challenges the bill's provisions on taxation and city services.
STORY 3: Kemp heading to Korea on trade mission
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and First Lady Marty Kemp are leading a trade mission to South Korea with state legislators and representatives from various state departments. The trip, focused on strengthening existing business relationships, will include meetings with executives from Hyundai, Kia, CJ Foodville, LG, SK, and Hanwha Qcells, many of which are part of Georgia’s growing electric vehicle industry. The mission aims to reinforce partnerships that bring investments and jobs to Georgia, emphasizing the importance of connectivity and open communication for economic progress.

STORY 5: Two Gwinnett Schools Name New Principals
Gwinnett County's school board has appointed new principals for Creekland Middle School and Duluth High School. Tyese M. Scott, former principal of McKendree Elementary School, will replace the retiring Kimberly Gillette at Creekland Middle. Cynthia "Cindy" A. Kinchen, previously principal at Duluth Middle School, will take over from Eric Davidson, who has been promoted, at Duluth High. Scott has 29 years in education, including 16 in Gwinnett, while Kinchen has an 18-year career within Gwinnett County Public Schools.
