Georgia Courthouse Thwarts Armed Invader
A man armed with explosives and an assault rifle might have entered a north Georgia courthouse Friday if not for a deputy who was wounded in the shootout with the gunman, Forsyth County Sheriff Duane Piper said.Authorities killed Dennis Marx outside the courthouse, Piper said, adding that the gunman planned to wreak more havoc once inside the building. “Marx’s intention was to get in that front door and take hostages,” he said. Marx was scheduled to attend a hearing at the Forsyth County Courthouse on Friday.
