A six-year-old boy who shot his teacher had a history of violent behaviour at school, it is claimed.
Lawyers for teacher Abby Zwerner, 25, accuse Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia, US, of failing to act on multiple occasions despite being told the student had a gun in his backpack on January 6.
Diane Toscano, the teacher's lawyer, is launching a claim against the school district along with two parents who claim their children have been left traumatised by the shooting.
