Richneck Elementary remains closed 2 weeks after a 6-year-old allegedly shot his teacher | CNN

The Virginia school where a first-grade student allegedly shot and critically injured his teacher January 6 will remain closed through January 20, according to an update posted on the school’s website. Richneck Elementary in Newport News has been closed since the day of the shooting, which police have described as “intentional.” Teacher Abby Zwerner, 25, has been praised for her heroic actions keeping her students safe after being shot.

The gun allegedly used in the shooting was legally purchased by the child’s mother, who could face charges at the end of the investigation, according to Drew. The child brought it to school Friday in his backpack. It remains unclear how the child accessed the weapon. Under Virginia law, it’s a misdemeanor if an adult leaves a loaded, unsecured firearm in such a way it could endanger a child under the age of 14.
