There was no probable cause at the time for an arrest or additional law enforcement action, the post said. Jackson County alerted local schools for continued monitoring of the subject.
Apalachee High School is in Barrow County and not a part of Jackson County schools or any city schools within Jackson County. It is uncertain whether Gray attended a school in Jackson County before moving into the Barrow County School District.
GBI Director Chris Hosey confirmed the FBI information during a 9 p.m. news conference.
On Wednesday, Gray was identified by the GBI as the suspect who killed two teachers and two students while injuring nine others at Apalachee High School.
To confirm, the subject referred to as the 13 year old is the same subject in custody related to today's shootings at Apalachee High School.

The Jackson County Sheriff's Office responded on Facebook with a note from Sheriff Janis Mangum.
"My phone is blowing up with messages from people about social media postings about other possible incidents. To my knowledge, there is not a list indicating any of this," the post read. "This is an ongoing investigation at Apalachee. Please be mindful of those who have been affected by this tragedy and continue to pray for all involved."
