GSP tells WABE they will ensure the driver who fled deputies will be prosecuted to the fullest extent that Georgia law allows. GSP tells WABE that the incident that killed 19-year-old Cooper Schoenke of DeKalb County is nothing short of heartbreaking.

Morgan is hearing some panic first-hand from teachers and education leaders across the state.
