CNN also reported that based on the statements of Gary Fullman, chief of staff of Wilmington mayor Dennis Williams, an altercation started it all. First, only two people were arguing, when other joined in. It was basically a fight between several individuals and one female high school student.

When the victim was flown to the A.I. DuPont Children's Hospital, she was already in a critical condition. The police are still investigating the event and the exact cause of her death is still being determined.

According to Police Chief Bobby Cummings, the school itself is not known for a history of violence. The death of the 16-year-old therefore came as a shock.

Wilmington City Councilwoman Sherry Dorsey Walker, speaking on behalf of the grieving family whom she had known for quite some time said that the family is simply asking for calm and prayers. There was no hint of retaliation. Walker even described the victim as a "wonderful human being."
