Divers look for Auburn gun
BY SUSAN NORMAN
A dive team from the Hall
County Sheriff’s Office
Tuesday morning searched a
pond behind the Auburn apart
ment complex where a man
and a woman were shot Nov.
15 while sleeping.
The team is searching for
the weapon used in the crime,
said Auburn Police Chief
Frederick Brown.
“We made the determination
a couple days ago to search the
pond based on the fact that we
searched everywhere else and
couldn't find the weapon, and
our investigator found what
appeared to be fresh footprints
by the edge of the pond the
morning of the crime,” he
said. “We’re going under the
assumption that that would
be a good place to throw the
weapon.”
A full dive team with eight
or more divers arrived at the
site off Park Mill Road at 9
a.m. Because of the murkiness
of the water, the divers used

feeling the bottom of the pond
by hand, Brown said.
Several Auburn law enforce
ment personnel are working
on the mystery of who and
why someone in the early
mornings hours of Nov. 15
shot 35-year-old Kathy Lynn
McCallister and 54-year-old
Michael John Borg while they
were asleep in an apartment in
the Parks Mill Apartments.
The victims have been
released from Gwinnett
Medical Center after undergo
ing surgery.
Brown said the victims have
moved out of the apartment
and are “kinda guarded right
now.”
With no known motive for
the shooting, Auburn police
are looking at three possible
theories: That the shooting
was gang related, drug related
or that “somebody just picked
the wrong house,” Brown
said.
He said there has been some
gang activity in the area of
the apartment complex. “This
summer, we had an assault
with some gang members in
that general area.”
However, police know of
no gang or drug ties to the
victims, he said.
