Fulton County marshals arrived at the home of Andrew Wordes at 335 Alpine Drive with an eviction notice Monday morning. Wordes warned them to back off, according to Marshal Antonio Johnson.


“We didn’t go in showing force or anything,” said Fulton Co. Marshal Antonio Johnson. “We just went to the door and tried to comjunicate with him regarding the eviction.”

Shortly before the explosion, Wordes called a reporter to find out if his lawn was clear of law enforcement personnel. In a record- ing of the conversation, Wordes warns “it’s not going to be pretty.” The explosion took place moments later, blowing debris into the front lawn.


Investigators are trying to figure out if Wordes detonated the explosion purposefully.


According to Deputy Chief Paul Piccirelli of Roswell Fire and EMS, a body was recovered from the house. Officials with the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office say an iden- tificiation of the body could take days, but could come as early as Tuesday.


Friends say Wordes drained his resources fight- ing city hall over the chickens and other code infractions. A bank had foreclosed on his house, forcing the eviction attempt Monday. (WXIA)
