THE dad of the child suspected in the Georgia school shooting has been arrested for his alleged role in the tragedy.

Colt Gray, 14, was arrested on Wednesday morning for launching a shooting at Apalachee High School in Barrow County, Georgia - allegedly killing four and injuring nine.

His father, Colin, 54, has now been arrested for four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of second-degree murder, and eight counts of cruelty to children.

Georgia authorities announced the arrest at a press conference, telling reporters that Colin "knowingly" let his son possess a weapon.
