STORY 1: Lawrenceville Father Was Driving Over 100 MPH In Collision That Killed 3

Aaron Vaughn, a Lawrenceville man, faces multiple charges, including second-degree murder and vehicular homicide, following a collision on March 10 that killed three people, including his 5-year-old daughter. Gwinnett police reported that Vaughn was driving his Chevrolet Camaro at over 100 mph, exceeding the 45-mph speed limit, when he crashed into a BMW in Peachtree Corners. The BMW's occupants, Armas Harding and Laura Rueda, died at the scene. Vaughn's daughter, Aura Camarono, also died, while a 6-year-old in the backseat survived. Both children were unrestrained by child safety seats as required by Georgia law. Vaughn faces additional charges, including cruelty to children and reckless driving.

STORY 2: Tucker Man Dead In Snellville After Traffic Stop Leads To Officer-Involved Shooting

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is probing an officer-involved shooting resulting in the death of Rashawn Johnson in Snellville. The incident unfolded during a traffic stop at around 4 a.m. on U.S. Highway 78. Snellville Police stated that Johnson, when ordered out of his car for arrest, brandished a handgun and pointed it at his head. Despite attempts to de-escalate, Johnson allegedly fired his weapon, prompting officers to return fire, resulting in his death. GBI revealed Johnson was holding a phone initially, with the gun concealed. The agency detailed the events leading to the shooting, indicating Johnson's non-compliance with officer commands. Autopsy results are pending, and GBI will submit its findings to the Gwinnett District Attorney's Office.

 

STORY 3: Police: Vandals Damaged Construction Equipment At Rowen Site

Authorities are on the lookout for two individuals suspected of causing havoc at the Rowen knowledge community construction site on St. Patrick's Day. The suspects, described as young white males with slim physiques, reportedly engaged in several destructive acts including damaging windshield wipers, defacing equipment with spray paint, tampering with the seat of a construction vehicle, and stealing two SIM cards from a security camera setup.

Rowen is envisioned as a groundbreaking development aimed at fostering innovation across agriculture, medicine, and environmental sciences, with aspirations to generate upwards of 100,000 job opportunities. However, the realization of this vision is expected to span several decades.

Law enforcement is appealing to the public for assistance in identifying the culprits. They encourage anyone with pertinent information to reach out to detectives or to submit tips anonymously via Crime Stoppers, noting that information leading to an arrest and indictment may be eligible for a financial reward.
