A Gainesville man was arrested Saturday for a domestic violence-related murder after police found a woman's body during a welfare check.
Christopher Dean Snow, 31, of Gainesville was charged with felony murder. Police tracked him to Gwinnett County, where he had been involved in a serious car crash on Interstate 85. He remains hospitalized in Gwinnett County. No information about the accident was immediately available.
Police were asked to perform a welfare check Saturday morning at Spring Valley Apartments. Once there, they found the body of Casey Lynn Mae Allen, 32, of Gainesville. She died of apparent stab wounds.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Casey and her children," Chief Jay Parrish said in a news release. "Sadly, multiple families have been impacted by this horrific event. As an agency, we will continue to support the families, even long after the investigation is complete."
