Girl Dies After Fight

In Long Beach, California, 11-year-old Joanna Ramos met a classmate after school in an alley. According to Maggie Martinez, Joanna's friend, "They took off their backpacks, and they put their hair in a bun, and then that's when they said 'go' and that's when they started hitting each other." Maggie and other friends tried to stop the fight, but they were held back by boys who wanted it to keep going. The girls were fighting over a boy. After the fight, Joanna went back to the after school program and vomited a while later. The school called Joanna's mother afterward. "My daughter started complaining, saying she doesn't feel good, let's go home, so we went to home and I changed her clothes, and she go to sleep, that's the only thing that I know," said Joanna's mother. "We took her to the hospital but it was too late. She was in a coma." Joanna died in the hospital Friday at 9pm, 6 hours after the fight occurred.

This is insane! They are 11 years old, and fighting over some boy?! They shouldn't even be thinking about boys at that age.
