Welcome to the news hour. The Department of Justice is warning that America's

elections are once again under foreign assault. More on that shortly.

We start tonight's program in Georgia where authorities say a gunman opened fire at a high school

killing four people, two students and two teachers.

At least nine others were injured.

Police say they have arrested a student who is the suspect, and

investigators say they don't yet know a motive. This morning about an hour outside

of Atlanta, all too familiar scenes of chaos.

Ambulances and police cars racing toward

Appalachian High School in Barrow County, Georgia

after reports of an active shooter,

dozens of emergency vehicles and the medevac chopper descended onto school grounds.

As students sought safety on the football field.

All the while, parents worried sick. I'm shocked because I mean this is

Barakina and stuff like this never happens here. Going to school, during school, after school,

whatever you do, just pray because you never know like when stuff like this going to happen.

Nearly 2,000 students attend Appalachia. The new school year

off about a month ago in early August. This afternoon, county officials identified the shooter as Colt Gray, a 14 year old student at the school.

He'll be charged with murder as an adult.

Our school resource officer engaged him and the shooter quickly realized that if he did not give up,

that it would end with an OIS or an officer involved shooting.

Judd Smith is the Barrow County Sheriff.
