One person killed in chemical self-inflicted death

The incident happened near the intersection of Anderson and Burnt Hickory roads.

One person was killed Saturday morning in what local fire officials are calling a chemical self-inflicted death.

The Cobb and Marietta fire departments were called out shortly after 8:30 am to the intersection of Anderson and Burnt Hickory roads.

"Due to chemicals being involved our hazmat team was on the scene for body decontamination and turning over to medical examiner," said Dennell Boyd, spokesman for the Cobb Fire and Emergency Services department.
