FBI Confirms Alleged Georgia School Shooter Was on Their Radar Since 2023


Another BIG tragic event just occurred.

This time it’s a school shooting in Georgia where two students and two teachers lost their lives.

Every time these tragic events happen, we need to question them.

So far it’s alleged that Georgia school shooter, Colt Gray, 14, is responsible for the tragic deaths of two students and two

Right now it’s come out that the FBI had the shooter flagged as a potential threat over a year ago.

Both the FBI and local authorities confirmed they received an anonymous tip in May 2023 regarding Gray.

But then, there’s reports coming out from those on site that there was more than one shooter.

FOX News reports:

The FBI has confirmed that the alleged shooter who killed two students and two teachers and wounded nine others at a Georgia high school Wednesday has been on its radar as a possible threat since last year.

In a joint statement, the FBI’s Atlanta field office and Jackson County Sheriff’s Office said the agency’s National Threat Operations Center received an anonymous tip about threats posted online regarding a possible school shooting in May 2023.

The agencies said that the threats contained images of guns.

Within 24 hours of receiving the anonymous tip, investigators determined the threats originated in Georgia and the matter was referred to the sheriff’s office.

“The Jackson County Sheriffs’ Office located a possible subject, a 13-year-old male, and interviewed him and his father,” the FBI said. “The father stated he had hunting guns in the house, but the subject did not have unsupervised access to them.”

The agencies said the boy denied making the threats and authorities alerted local schools to monitor the child.

“At that time, there was no probable cause for arrest or to take any additional law enforcement action on the local, state, or federal levels,” the FBI said.

On Wednesday, authorities identified Colt Gray, now 14, as the shooter who killed two students and two teachers at Apalachee High School. Gray surrendered to authorities and was taken into custody following the rampage.

“As a follow to the Joint Statement just released, the subject referred to as the 13-year-old is the same subject in custody related to today’s shootings at Apalachee High School,” the FBI said.

The first thing I thought was, “I bet there’s more than 1 shooter. It’s almost never a ‘lone’ shooter.”

I’ll be researching that next.
