Spot News: Plane Crash in Lawrenceville

About an hour before I was going to head out for football I got a call from John Bazemore at the AP asking if I could shoot some spot news for him, since he was over at Talladega in Alabama for the races.

Basically, a plane crashed into a house in Lawrenceville and killed the pilot and occupant of the home.  Since it was in Gwinnett, I agreed to shoot it since my game for the AJC wasn’t too far away.

  1. Do you have any more pictures of this incident? I am the firefighter all the way on the left on the first picture and the firefighter in the last picture. Thanks!
