A tragic school shooting in Georgia has left the community in shock, with details emerging that may indicate a missed opportunity to prevent the tragedy.

The mother of the suspect, Colt Gray, had reportedly warned school officials about her son’s behavior just minutes before the fatal attack at Apalachee High School, as reported by the New York Post.

Marcee Gray, the mother of the 14-year-old suspect, explained that she had a gut feeling something was wrong with her son. She told ABC News that Colt’s teachers had noticed troubling behavior earlier that morning, including references to violence.

She reached out to the school’s counselor, who confirmed the concerns from a teacher’s email. Marcee recalled telling the counselor, “Between my gut feelings, the text messages, and now this email, you need to, like, run to the classroom.”

Despite these warnings, Colt Gray allegedly opened fire approximately 30 minutes later, killing two students and two teachers, and injuring nine others. The school’s resource officers were reportedly trying to locate Colt, but confusion with a similarly named student delayed their response.

The tragedy raises serious questions about the response time and actions of school officials. According to a phone log from Marcee’s shared family plan, she had made a 10-minute call to the school at 9:50 a.m.—just a half-hour before Colt reportedly began his attack.

Marcee’s sister, Annie Brown, also confirmed in interviews that Marcee had notified the school of an “extreme emergency” and told them to immediately check on her son.

However, it appears a mix-up in identifying the student may have hindered the response. A classmate of Colt’s, Lyela Sayarath, reported that a school administrator came to the math classroom looking for the suspect but instead left with another student’s backpack, mistaking him for Colt due to the similarity in their names.

Tragically, the shooting began just minutes after this confusion.

This isn’t the first time concerns were raised about Colt’s mental state. Family members said the school and Gray’s family had been in contact about Colt’s mental health a week prior, when he was reportedly experiencing “homicidal and suicidal thoughts.”

As reported by the Washington Post, the school district has remained tight-lipped on specifics, with Barrow County School System Superintendent Dallas LeDuff saying their focus is on healing the community. As investigations continue, Marcee Gray expressed her sorrow for the victims’ families, stating, “I am so, so sorry and can not fathom the pain and suffering they are going through right now.”
