Three teachers went to administrators at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News on Jan. 6 warning that the boy may have had a gun, the attorney representing the wounded teacher, Abigail Zwerner, has alleged.
Authorities say Chunli Zhao, 66, shot and killed four workers and wounded a fifth at California Terra Garden. He then went to nearby Concord Farms, where he had worked previously, and fatally shot three former co-workers, they say.
Students returned to Richneck Elementary School for the first time Monday with two metal detectors, two permanent school division security officers and clear backpacks.
