Three children, under the age of 12, have been arrested and remain in custody after breaking into a Richmond, VA., elementary school and for a May shooting of a female cafeteria worker in another location.
The trio of youths have confessed to their roles in a shooting at another Richmond Public Schools building, sources told reporters.
The arrests happened Tuesday night, at about 7:30 p.m., when police were called to Overby-Sheppard Elementary School, on 1st Avenue in Richmond, for a reported school break-in. Once the children were taken into custody, Crime Insider sources said they confessed to their roles in a May shooting at the Norrell Annex building on West Graham Road, near Battery Park, in Richmond.
The two buildings, Overby-Sheppard and the Norrell Annex, sit less than one mile apart from each other in north Richmond.
One woman was shot in the arm when three children — one wearing a red bandanna on his face – stormed into the Norrell Annex building on May 1.
The building is used by the school system’s Food and Nutrition staff.
