Eric Adams, 32, was found unresponsive on the floor of Adams Motorsports in the 11000 block of Lewis Braselton Boulevard on Friday afternoon, the GBI said in a news release.
Jackson County Emergency Medical Services took Adams to Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville, where he was pronounced dead, the release said.
Medical staff at the hospital noted a suspicious injury consistent with that of a gunshot wound, the release said. The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office began investigating and ended up calling in the GBI for assistance.
