Police believe philanthropist killed by robber

Georgia police investigators believe a Gainesville philanthropist and businessman was likely killed in a robbery or carjacking gone wrong.

The Gainsville Times reported that Police Chief Jay Parrish said Jack Hough was fatally shot in the parking lot of a CVS Pharmacy around

8 p.m. Thursday. He was pronounced dead at an area hospital about an hour later.

Parrish said Friday the police have collected evidence that may help determine what happened. He said Hough went to the pharmacy with his wife, Gail Davis, who went into the store, while he stayed in the car.

Police have not yet identified a suspect but have witness descriptions of a man wearing all black leaving the scene.
