The FBI Atlanta responded to reports of an active shooter at Apalachee High School and has been coordinating with local and state law enforcement to support the ongoing situation.

In May 2023, the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center received anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting at an unspecified location.

The threats included photographs of guns. The FBI identified the post as originating in Georgia and referred the information to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office.

The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office identified a possible suspect, a 13-year-old male, and interviewed him and his father.

The father stated that there were hunting guns in the house, but the suspect did not have unsupervised access to them.

The suspect denied making the threats.

Local schools were alerted for continued monitoring.

At that time, there was no probable cause for arrest or further law enforcement action at the local, state, or federal levels.
