14-year-old boy from Houston dies after classmate stabs him in the eye during a fight over a brownie
A 14-year-old Houston boy died after he was stabbed in the eye by a classmate in a food-related conflict. Brian Angel, an eighth-grader at the Jane Long Academy in southwest Houston, died this past Friday, March 8, at the Memorial Hermann hospital, after fighting for his life for two days.
According to ABC13, the stabbing occurred after school hours on Wednesday, March 6, after Angel walked across Bellaire Boulevard to a Shop N' Go convenience store. He was reportedly involved in a heated argument with a classmate which eventually spilled outside the store. The altercation ended when the other boy took out a knife and stabbed Angel in the head.
Speaking about the incident, the 14-year-old's friend said the fight had erupted over an extremely trivial matter. "It was over a brownie," he said. "It was ridiculous. I think that (other) kid was not healthy mentally and caused him to pull out his knife and cut him."
