Elon Musk’s social media platform X on Thursday blocked search results for the name of the alleged teenage gunman in the Georgia school massacre.
Colt Gray, 14, was arrested after two students and two teachers were killed at Apalachee High School in Winder, Ga., on Wednesday.
His name was published by several media outlets, including The Post, but a search for “Colt Gray” on X resulted in an error message Thursday.
Users were directed to a mostly blank page with the message: “Something went wrong. Try reloading.”
A pop-up at the bottom of the screen added: “Something went wrong, but don’t fret — it’s not your fault.”
The Post has sought comment from Musk and X.
Meanwhile, a search for “Colt Gray” on Threads, the X rival owned by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, spit out several results.
Authorities have identified Gray as the assailant who got up in the middle of class to retrieve his gun before allegedly opening fire on fellow classmates and teachers.
Two school resource officers encountered the shooter within minutes of a report that shots had been fired, according to investigators.

Gray, who allegedly used an assault rifle, surrendered after the shooting spree and was taken into custody.
Authorities have indicated that he will be tried as an adult.
Gray was interviewed by police more than a year ago as they looked into online posts that threatened a school shooting, according to officials.
Authorities who interviewed Gray did not have sufficient evidence to make an arrest, officials said.
Classes were canceled on Thursday at Apalachee High School, though some people came to pay respects by leaving flowers around the flagpole and kneeling in the grass with heads bowed.
