A park ranger was shot Wednesday night at Buford Dam Park at the south end of Lake Lanier and the suspected shooter likely committed suicide, according to the Gwinnett County Police Department. Gwinnett Police Department Cpl. Jake Smith said in a news release that the department received a 911 call at about 10:15 p.m. advising that a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ranger, D.P. Wright, 70, had been shot at the Lower Overlook area of the park. Officers responded and found Wright had managed to walk to Buford Dam Road for help despite a gunshot wound to the abdomen, closing the gate behind him to prevent his attacker’s exit.
