A 12-year-old student has died after she was filmed fighting with another girl after both were ordered off their school bus, authorities in Georgia have said.
Jada West died from a brain injury days after collapsing following the fight on March 5 near her home in Villa Rica, just outside Atlanta, Fox 5 reported.
Disturbing cellphone video shared on Facebook by West’s aunt, De’Quala McClendon, shows the girls appearing to argue after being kicked off the bus around 5 p.m.
“She done made all these people get off the bus,” the person recording is heard saying, as West says she does not know the person she is arguing with.
“Who is gonna fight you over some noise?” another onlooker says as the two, who are students at Mason Creek Middle School, exchange more words.
“Everybody know I kick a** so please don’t start with me,” the other girl says to West before the fight breaks out.
West and the other girl are seen punching and slapping each other repeatedly before they fall to the ground with a loud thud.
“Oh my God, Jada!” a friend calls out after West appears to fall on her back.
Jada was able to get up and walk away but had to be rushed to the hospital shortly afterward when her heart stopped, according to her aunt.
McClendon later posted a video showing West in a hospital bed, hooked up to several machines after suffering severe brain damage.
