The father of Colt Gray, the suspected gunman in the Apalachee High School shooting, has been arrested.

The father of Colt Gray, the teen suspect in the Apalachee High School shooting, appeared in a Georgia courtroom Friday to face multiple charges stemming from this week's deadly attack.

Colin Gray, 54, is being charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of second-degree murder and eight counts of cruelty to children, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Thursday when the agency announced his arrest. The 14-year-old shooting suspect has been charged with four counts of felony murder.

GBI Director Chris Hosey said at a news conference Thursday night that the charges against Colin Gray stem from "knowingly allowing his son to possess a weapon."
