A 6-year-old student shot a teacher during an altercation at a Virginia elementary school on Friday, police said. No students were injured in the incident at Richneck Elementary School, Newport News police said in a statement.

"This was not an accidental shooting," Police Chief Steve Drew told reporters during an evening press conference.

The chief said the teacher, a woman in her 30s, suffered what he described as a life-threatening gunshot wound and was taken to a hospital.

The boy was taken into custody, the chief said. No one else was involved in the incident, he said.

There is something missing about this story, either intentionally or otherwise.
May have been the culmination of abuse or gender bending.... but 6 year olds don't have enough focus to pull this off.

Kamaji:
More details needed.

"You aren't cutting my balls off!" ?

One would think, especially at such a young age that something dire provoked this.

No, we are far from getting the whole story.

Seems a pretty rough town... just judging by a few factors. Not that my state doesn't have a city with worse stats (Birmingham).
