A teenage girl was killed when a “trespasser” stabbed her at a high school in California this week, according to reports.
The horrifying attack unfolded just after 11 a.m. on Monday morning in Stockton, a city in the Central Valley of the Golden State.
A male suspect carrying a knife managed to enter Stagg High School and fatally stab 15-year-old Alicia Reynaga in a “random act,” authorities told local media.
“A trespasser entered the front of our school today and stabbed one of our students multiple times. Unfortunately, she did not make it,” Stockton Unified School District Superintendent John Ramirez Jr. said in a press conference.
“Today, at 11:05 a.m., the Stockton Unified School District notified us of a student who was stabbed at Stagg High School (1621 Brookside Road) and requested our assistance,” Stockton Police explained in a statement. “The student, a 15-year-old female, was transported to an area hospital where unfortunately she died from her injuries.”
“What detectives have learned so far is the suspect, an adult male, drove to the front parking lot of the school and parked his vehicle. He then exited his car, walked over to the student, and stabbed her. The suspect was quickly detained by a Stockton Unified School District Police Officer.”
The suspect was identified as 52-year-old Anthony Gray.
He was reportedly booked at San Joaquin County Jail on a murder charge.
Reynaga is mourned by her family, friends, and teammates on the school softball team where she played catcher.
“They practice everyday, and they are a real close-knit team and it was one of their best friends,” local father Isaac told ABC10.
“She was her teammate, softball teammate. She was on the JV team and she played varsity and she was one of the star catchers.”
