The mother of a six-year-old child who police say shot first-grade teacher Abby Zwerner at a Newport News, Virginia, elementary school has been charged with two crimes, according to authorities.
"Every criminal case is unique in its facts, and these facts support these charges, but our investigation into the shooting continues," Gwynn said. Zwerner’s attorney, Diane Toscano, told reporters in January that concerned staff at the school had warned administrators three times that the 6-year-old had a gun and was threatening other students in the hours before Zwerner was shot.
Gwynn also asked the circuit court to impanel a special grand jury to investigate security issues at the school.

Mother of 6-year-old who shot teacher indicted by grand juryA grand jury in Virginia has indicted the mother of a 6-year-old boy who shot his teacher. Prosecutor Howard Gwynn said in a news release that a grand jury sitting in Newport News on Monday charged the boy’s 25-year-old mother with felony child neglect and a misdemeanor charge of endangering a child by reckless storage of a firearm. The Associated Press isn’t naming the mother to shield the identity of her son. The boy shot his first-grade teacher, Abby Zwerner, on Jan. 6 inside her classroom at Richneck Elementary School. Police say the boy’s mother legally purchased the gun. Her attorney has said the gun was secured on a top shelf in her closet and had a trigger lock.
