According to officials, Lloyd Sylvester Cantrell tried to ram his SUV into the building. He loaded up the truck with natural gas, gasoline and propane. Vernon Keenan, director of the GBI, says the body is being transferred to the GBI facility in Decatur.
Cantrell was launching a suicide attack, according to a spokesman, after some dispute with a worker at the law firm.
Officials are looking at Cantrell’s property in North Whitfield County. An ATF spokesman says they are proceeding with caution. Law Enforcement officials are concerned the property might have hidden explosive devices, although they say there is no evidence yet to affirm that concern.
