Three Georgia men have been arrested in connection with the death of a teenage girl found dead at a Peach Tree City apartment complex, police said Wednesday.
15-year-old Madison Gesswein was found dead by her mother around 6 a.m. Tuesday inside their apartment at The Greens at Braelinn complex in Peachtree City. A final cause of death is pending determination.
“But an injury to Madison’s head appears consistent with a gunshot wound,” a Peachtree City police statement said.
Authorities announced the arrests of three suspects, all 18. They were identified as Justus Smith, Jacobean Brown, and Yeshua Mathis.
All three are charged with murder.
Investigators said all three were acquaintances with Gesswein. One of them was arrested after fleeing a home in Fayetteville, police said.
The suspects are being held at the Fayette County jail. Additional charges may be added as the investigation continues, police said.
