A shooting at a Georgia high school has left at least two people dead and four people injured. A suspect is reported to be in police custody. NBC News’ Morgan Chesky reports on the latest happening at Apalachee High School in Barrow County, Ga.

Two students and two teachers were killed and nine others wounded Wednesday in a school shooting an hour outside of Atlanta, authorities said. One suspect, a 14-year-old student, was alive and taken into custody following the gunfire at Apalachee High School, Georgia Bureau of Investigation director Chris Hosey said at a news conference late Wednesday afternoon. The suspect surrendered to law enforcement immediately after being confronted, Hosey said.

All campuses of Barrow County Schools, based in Winder, Georgia, went into a 'soft lockdown' with most of the activity centered around Apalachee H.S. where police cars, fire trucks and ambulances had all converged. Students could be seen being directed to the school's football stadium.
