High school student fatally stabs classmate in the chest and back because she started dating her ex-boyfriend
A 17-year-old Detroit girl accused of killing a classmate in school was reportedly laughing as she chased her classmate with a steak knife before stabbing her in the chest and back, authorities said on Friday as they filed a first-degree murder charge.
Tanaya Lewis was arraigned in Warren District Court on Friday, two days after 16-year-old Danyna Gibson was murdered in a classroom at Fitzgerald High School. Police said there was animosity between the straight-A students over a boy.
The case is "very unfortunate, all the way around," defense attorney Mark Brown said after the hearing.
Prosecutor: "She committed the most horrific crime there is." Police say 17-year-old Tanaya Lewis kept yelling "I'm going to kill her," after stabbing 16-year-old Danyna Gibson four times. MORE: @FOX2News 5PM pic.twitter.com/DSTSK18brU
