The attacker, who threatened a mass shooting last year, has been identified as Colt Gray, according to the BCC. He will now be tried as an adult. The police were also suspicious about the activities of the attacker earlier. In May last year, the FBI questioned Colt's family. He then threatened mass shootings on social media.
