Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia, is closed through Friday to give students “time to heal” after a 6-year-old boy allegedly shot and injured a teacher Friday, the school announced. The shooting came just six days into the new year, with police swarming a campus that still had a “Happy New Year” sign outside and taking the young child into custody. Police Chief Steve Drew said the boy shot the teacher in a classroom and it was “not an accidental shooting.
“The fact that we have a 6-year-old individual with the ability to bring a gun into school and harm his teacher – something that we’re still grappling with.” The mayor would not comment on the child’s family or their involvement with the investigation. “There’s a lot of questions that we have to answer as a community,” the mayor added. “Up with, how a 6-year-old was able to have a gun, know how to use it in such a deliberate manner … The individuals responsible will be held accountable.
