The woman found shot to death in a murder-suicide Wednesday afternoon at a Dawsonville home was a supervisor at the Forsyth County 911 Center, the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office said Thursday.
Erin Niccole Jones, 28, a communications supervisor, and David Geyer II, 43, her boyfriend, were found dead on different floors of their house on Maple Hill Drive by deputies who went to the scene after a 911 call was made by a woman in distress who reported someone in the home had a gun.
Operators who took the call heard possible gun shots, and deputies heard more gun shots coming from inside the home when they arrived.
When they entered the house, they found the bodies of Jones on the second floor and Geyer on the first floor.
The sheriff’s office said four small children also lived in the house, but they were not there at the time of the shooting. Jones and Geyer were the parents of the children.
Investigators are not aware of any previous incident of violence at the home, the sheriff’s office said.
The bodies of Jones and Geyer have been sent to the GBI crime lab for autopsy.
The sheriff’s office would not say Thursday what type of firearm was used in the shootings.
