PEACHTREE CORNERS -- In a further attempt at identification, police have released more details about tattoos on the body of a dead man found Monday in Peachtree Corners.
Gwinnett County police investigators have not yet identified the body discovered early Monday behind an office building on Technology Parkway. The male victim -- described as between 5-foot-10 and 6-foot-2 and approximately 200 pounds -- had several head injuries "from an unknown origin," officials said.
Police spokesman Cpl. Jake Smith said Wednesday that an autopsy was "inconclusive regarding the cause of death." Officials do believe that the death is suspicious.
"Samples have been sent in for a toxicology test," Smith said. "Those results will not be available for several weeks."
On Wednesday, police also released specifics about a pair of tattoos found on the body. One is a tribal tattoo on the upper arm.
The second features a cartoon depiction of Mickey Mouse with outspread arms. Its specific location was not released, but officials previously said the tattoo was in "a unique location."
Anyone with information on the deceased is asked to call detectives at 770-513-5300.

Could there be a link between the armed robbery at the Ingles?

The 'robbery' at Ingles where the bad guys, on a Friday night during broad daylight, held guns on a male long enough to move a TV big enough that he was tying it down in a pickup truck into their tiny sedan? That robbery? The one where the victim refused to call police when it happened and still refuses to call them? No...don't think it's related to that "armed robbery" at Ingles...
