A student at a Maryland high school died after being shot by another student during a fight on Friday in a school bathroom, authorities said.

Warren Curtis Grant, 15, died after the shooting at Joppatowne high school, the Harford county sheriff, Jeff Gahler, said at a media briefing.

A 16-year-old student whom police identified as the shooter fled shortly afterward but was caught minutes later nearby.

“He has yet to be charged, but will be charged, and at the time those charges are preferred as an adult, we will release the name of the suspect,” Gahler said.

Gahler also said that the sheriff’s office has had more than 10 cases since 2022 “where the suspect was either the victim, witness or the suspect in an incident handled by the Harford county sheriff’s office”, adding that the investigation was in its early stages.

Kentucky police reported an “active shooter situation” on Saturday evening near Interstate 75 in London, Kentucky, south of Lexington, where “numerous persons” had been shot in traffic.

The incident began just before 6pm local time about nine miles outside London, when officers were called for reports of multiple vehicles being fired at on the interstate in Laurel County, multiple media accounts said. The shots were reportedly coming from a wooded area or an overpass.

“Please avoid I-75 around Ext 49. Until further notice! Use alternative route do not be any where in that area,” London mayor Randall Weddle said on Facebook.

The father of the alleged teen gunman who killed four people in a mass shooting at Apalachee High School in northern Georgia has been arrested, law enforcement officials announced Thursday night.

Colin Gray, 54, was charged with four counts of manslaughter, two counts of second-degree murder and eight counts of cruelty to children, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said the day after his 14-year-old son Colt Gray was charged with murder.

The charges come after it was revealed that Colin Gray purchased the AR-15-style rifle Colt allegedly used in the massacre as a Christmas gift last December, sources told The Post.

The Atlanta office of the FBI has released new details about the 14-year-old boy accused of killing two students and two teachers and injuring nine others at Apalachee High School on Wednesday in Winder, Ga.

In a post on X, the FBI said in May 2023 it received “several anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting at an unidentified location and time,” and that the threats contained images of guns.

The agency says the sheriff’s office identified a suspect, a 13-year-old male, and interviewed him and his father. “The father stated he had hunting guns in the house, but the subject did not have unsupervised access to them. The subject denied making the threats online,” the post said.

The FBI said the sheriff’s office alerted local schools for continued monitoring of the subject, but that there was no probable cause for arrest or to take any additional law enforcement action. The agency confirmed that the then-13-year-old is the same teenager who was taken into custody after Wednesday's shooting.

Four people were killed on a commuter train in the Chicago area on Labor Day, police said.

Police were dispatched to a train station in Forest Park, a village 10 miles west of Chicago, at about 5:30 a.m. after receiving a call that three people were shot. Three people were pronounced dead on the scene, while one was transported to the hospital and died there, Forest Park police said.

The train was in motion on the system’s blue line, and the shooting happened across two cars, police said.

The suspect initially escaped from the scene, but was later found through Chicago Transit Authority surveillance video. Police now have the person in custody and seized a firearm in their possession.

“This is an isolated incident, so it can happen anywhere,” Forest Park Police Deputy Chief Christopher Chin said. “Obviously, there’s a little bit more concern because it is on a mass transit system, but understand that there are security measures in place, not only by our local police departments that run along the line, but also CTA, as well.”
