December 8-- The GBI is unsure why a Wheeler County man killed a co-worker and then killed himself according to GBI Ageny Todd Lowery. Forty-nine-year old Terry Hall was fatally shot when he arrived at work Tuesday morning at a trucking business about six miles southwest of Alamo. The shooter, 32-year-old Elliott White, also fired at, but missed a woman who drove Hall to work. She alerted authorities who arrived to find White dead in a nearby wooded area. Lowery says White died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Still Waiting on Ballistics Results in Vidalia Case Meanwhile, Agent Lowery says the GBI is still awaiting results of ballistics testing in the Thanksgiving shooting which killed a 19-year-old Vidalia man. The GBI believes a Vidalia police officer was fired on by Trey Hunter and returned fire which hit the teenager in the head. Lowery says it could be a while before he gets results back from the state crime lab.
