Last year, on April 21, 2106, Amy Inita Joyner-Francis, 16, got attacked by some bullies in the bathroom at Howard High School of Technology in Wilmington, Delaware.
Why were the girls fighting? Over a boy. Amy was taken to A.I. DuPont Hospital for Children within thirty minutes of that fight.
She died from the injuries she sustained.
Kayla Wilson witnessed the fight, she said that while Amy was fighting with one girl, other girls started to jump on her.
Then someone reportedly smashed Amy’s head against one of the bathroom sinks. Talk about scary.
It was only 8:15 AM and classes hadn’t even started for the day. How often do we hear about students being killed in school by other students?
I wonder how many students knew of the fight and did nothing to stop it.
At the time, police had not released any details about the crime.
