Colson turned himself into police Tuesday morning.
A Facebook spokesperson issued the following statement about the incident:
"This is a terrible incident and our thoughts are with the victim and his loved ones. Because we cannot have known that the victim would have wanted this horrific act to be live streamed on social media, we have removed the original video. We will apply a warning screen to future uploads of the video intended to raise awareness or condemn this tragedy, and limit accessibility to people over the age of 18. We will remove instances of videos from Facebook that are shared supporting or encouraging such acts of violence."
