Four people — two students and two teachers — were killed and nine others were injured in a shooting at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, on Wednesday, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said.
The suspect has been identified as 14-year-old Colt Gray, a student at the high school.
The shooter will be charged with murder and will be tried as an adult.
He will be booked Wednesday night, according to GBI.
During a news conference on Wednesday night, GBI Director Director Chris Hosey identified the four people who were killed.
“There are four individuals who are deceased from this incident. Nine have been taken to local hospitals with various injuries. Of those that are deceased, two were students and two were teachers here at the school,” Hosey said.
He said the two students who were killed were both 14 years old. They have been identified as Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo.
The teachers who were killed are Richard Aspinwall, 39, and Christina Irimie, 53, according to Hosey. Both of those teachers are listed in the high school’s online staff directory as math teachers.
The nine other people who were injured have not yet been identified. Of the nine, eight were students and one was a teacher, according to investigators. On Wednesday night, Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith said all of the victims who were hospitalized are expected to recover.
“We don’t expect any more fatalities at this time,” Smith said.
