The 6-year-old boy accused of shooting and seriously wounding his first-grade teacher in Virginia last winter later said, “I shot that b**** dead,” according to newly unsealed redacted search warrants.

A reading specialist was restraining the boy when officers arrived at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News on Jan. 6, according to the documents. She’d grabbed him after the classroom shooting and held him in place until police arrived.

“I did it,” the boy allegedly said as he was being restrained. “I got my mom’s gun last night.”

Police later confirmed the boy used his mother’s gun, which was purchased legally.

While the boy has not been charged, his mother, Deja Taylor, was indicted in April on charges of felony child neglect and misdemeanor recklessly leaving a loaded firearm as to endanger a child. She was additionally charged in June with unlawfully using a controlled substance while in possession of a firearm and making a false statement during the purchase of a firearm.
