A woman was found dead inside a Gwinnett County home after her friend sounded the alarm to check on her, according to police.
Gwinnett officers were called around 9:40 p.m. to a home on Glen Summit Lane in the Magnolia Manor neighborhood. The area is located between the Centerville and Rosebud communities.
A friend of the woman grew concerned when she hadn’t heard from her and reached out to someone with a spare key to the home so they could check on her, police spokesperson Cpl. Ryan Winderweedle said.
“The key-holder showed up at the house and located the female deceased,” he said.
When officers arrived, they found the woman dead inside the home, officials said. It was not clear how she died, but detectives are investigating the incident as a “domestic-related homicide,” Winderweedle said.
Police also found a man inside. He was alive, but had sustained a gunshot wound that investigators believe was self-inflicted.
Detectives determined that the man and woman lived together.
No other information was released.
