Firefighters found a man’s body inside of a Stone Mountain Street business late Wednesday afternoon while responding to a fire, according to the Gwinnett County Fire and Emergency Services and a media report.
11Alive reported the body belonged to known divorce attorney Doug Lewis, who was shot inside of his law offices by a client’s husband. The offices were then set on fire, the outlet reported.
Gwinnett fire officials said Thursday firefighters responded around 5:30 p.m., when crews saw heavy smoke and fire coming out of the single-story, wood-frame structure.
The body was found while firefighters were searching the building, fire officials said.
First responders saw a man walking away from the scene, who denied medical assistance and was detained for questioning by the Lawrenceville Police Department, fire officials said.
