An elementary school teacher suffered injuries after being shot Friday in a Virginia first-grade classroom by a 6-year-old student, officials said. The student is in custody.

No students were injured at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia, police said.

“The altercation was between a 6-year-old, the student who did have the firearm, and the teacher,” Newport News Police Chief Steve Drew said. “This was not an accidental shooting.”

Drew said a call was received about the shooting at about 2 p.m. and authorities responded “within minutes.” He said there is not a continued threat to the community.

“We did not have a situation where someone was going around the school shooting. We had a situation in one particular location where a gunshot was fired,” Drew said in a press conference.
