His father Colin Gray has told authorities that he bought the gun for the boy himself as a Christmas gift... just months after the teenager and his father were interviewed by local law enforcement in connection with online threats about carrying out a school shooting.

The kid had a long list of excuses about how his gaming account had been hacked, etc. There were threats to shoot up a school linked to the account, both father and son questioned by law enforcement.
