Here are the top 3 stories in Duluth today:

1. Police are adding more traffic cameras to areas near Gwinnett County schools in order to keep school zones safe. They've also posted signs in the areas letting drivers know the cameras are operational. If anyone is caught speeding or violating any traffic laws, they'll get a warning during the 30-day warning period; beginning March 2 they'll receive speeding tickets. (WSB Atlanta)
2. The 911 call from last week's Gun Lobby employee shooting was released to the public on Friday. The owner of the Peachtree Industrial Boulevard store told the dispatcher that he was forced to shoot his employee after the two of them got into an argument and the employee reached for a gun. Duluth Police say the employee told a different story and are still investigating the incident. (FOX 5 Atlanta)
3. Gwinnett County Public Library congratulates the graduates of the New Start Entrepreneurship Incubator! Participants in this six-month program received assistance with developing their business ideas, learned what is needed to run a successful business, and received one on one support from successful entrepreneurs and business experts.
