Two students and two teachers were killed in a shooting at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, according to Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director, Chris Hosey. Nine people were hospitalized, the bureau said.

Officials have named 14-year-old student Colt Gray as the suspect.

Police say students are being reunited with their families after the “evil” attack.

One student, Lyela Sayarath, said the suspected shooter left the classroom at the beginning of their Algebra 1 class. When the suspect returned near the end of the class, he knocked to get back in. Another student went to open the door, but Lyela said they noticed the gun and didn’t open the door. She said the shooter went to the classroom next door and opened fire.

Apalachee High School had received a phone threat earlier that morning warning that there would be shootings at five schools and that Apalachee would be the first, multiple law enforcement officials told CNN.

The director of Georgia’s police force said the suspect had surrendered to police at Apalachee High School in Winder. He said the suspect would be charged with murder and tried as an adult.
