A Georgia golf pro was shot dead on the course he was working on because he found a crime in progress, police said Tuesday.

The Cobb County Sheriff’s Department said Eugene Seiler was shot in the head on Saturday at the 10th green hole at Pinetree Country Club in Kensaw, near Atlanta.

Police said two other men were found shot dead in the bed of a white Ram 3500 pickup truck that was on the lawn.

Police said on Tuesday they believed Sealer was shot because he was a witness to “an ongoing crime involving the unknown suspect” and the two victims in the truck.
