Six Shooter | Boy Shoots Teacher with Gun Track

On the day a six-year-old pupil shot and wounded his teacher in the US state of Virginia, school leaders were warned three times that the boy might have a gun, a lawyer for the teacher said.

This included a request to search the boy and a report from another child who said the boy had shown him a gun.

The teacher - Abigail Zwerner, 25 - is recovering after being released from hospital last week. In the fallout, the school's superintendent has now lost his job.
