16 year old girl dies after bathroom brawl turns fatal
Howard High School of Technology in Wilmington, DE is mourning the loss of one of its students after a bathroom brawl turned fatal. Early Thursday morning 16-year-old Amy Joyner was involved in a fist fight with a classmate. What began as a one on one scuffle escalated into Joyner being jumped by a group of girls. In the midst of the chaos Joyner’s head banged against the bathroom sink, which placed her in a critical state. She was later airlifted to a nearby children’s hospital where she died of her injuries. Witnesses admitted that the altercation was over a boy, and Amy entered the bathroom with intent to reason with the other girl. A vigil was held Thursday evening for the sophomore. Her peers remember her as a confidant who didn’t believe in fighting, which makes the cause of death even more tragic.
