Four people were killed and nine people were hospitalized in a shooting at Apalachee High School in Barrow County on Wednesday morning, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said.
Two of the dead are students, and two of the dead are teachers, the GBI said at an afternoon press conference.
The GBI identified the shooter as 14-year-old Colt Gray, a student at Apalachee High.
The bureau said deputies with the sheriff's office responded minutes after reports of an active shooter at 10:20 a.m. and encountered the suspect, who "immediately surrendered to these officers, and he was taken into custody."
Gray will be charged with murder, the GBI said. Sheriff Jud Smith said that authorities were looking into how he obtained a weapon and got it into school Wednesday morning. The weapon was not identified.
