Gwinnett County police are investigating the suspicious death of 32-year-old Marisol Ballestas Brochero, whose body was discovered at an apartment complex in Norcross on Friday afternoon. The incident occurred just before 12:30 p.m. at an apartment located in the 1600 block of Graves Road.

At this time, the cause of Brochero’s death remains unclear, and authorities have classified the incident as a “suspicious death.” Police are continuing their investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding her death.
In a separate but related incident, another family member of Brochero was involved in a car crash earlier on Friday morning at Graves Road and Dawson, near the apartment complex. The individual involved in the crash was transported to the hospital, but their condition remains unknown. Authorities have not yet confirmed if the two incidents are connected, though they have acknowledged that the individuals involved in both situations are related.
Local resident Marco Guia expressed concern about the events, saying, “I can’t believe it. I think we have to move from here.” Many in the neighborhood are shaken by the developments.
Police have assured the public that there is no danger and that they are not actively searching for any suspects at this time. The investigation into Brochero’s death is ongoing, and authorities continue to explore whether the two incidents are linked.
