A teacher who was shot by her six-year-old student is seeking $40 million in damages from school officials claiming they ignored the warnings about the kid.
Abby Zwerner, a 25-year-old teacher at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia was shot in the hand and chest on January 6 as she sat at a reading table in her classroom.
She spent nearly two weeks in the hospital and has had four surgeries since the shooting.
