Teen Girl Dies After Fight in Bathroom of Delaware High School


 A 16-year-old Delaware girl was killed Thursday morning after a fight in the bathroom of her high school.


Wilmington Police confirms that Amy Inita Joyner-Francis began fighting with another student before classes began for the day at Howard High School of Technology. At some point, at least two other girls jumped the victim. A witness told WPVI that Joyner-Francis hit her head against the sink, and multiple outlets have reported that the fight began over a boy.

The school called 911. Medics performed CPR on Joyner-Francis. She was airlifted to A.I. duPont Hospital for Children, where she was pronounced dead from her injuries.
