BREAKING: A high schooler is dead and another wounded after an argument led to gunfire outside a Fort Worth Whataburger, police say.
According to police, the shooting was reported shortly after 4 p.m. outside the Whataburger on the 2400 block of West Berry Street, located near Fort Worth ISD's R.L. Paschal High School.
Speaking to reporters Friday evening, Fort Worth Police Chief Neil Noakes described the events as"senseless" and asked for the public's help finding the shooter responsible. "This is another example of senseless, tragic violence that never had to happen," Noakes said."Unfortunately it involved some very young people right here in the city of Fort Worth."We're going to do anything possible to bring those responsible to justice," Noakes said.
Noakes said it began as a verbal altercation among a group of high school students who knew each other. At some point the argument escalated into a physical altercation before someone opened fire, striking two teens. The teens, described by police as a 16-year-old boy and a 17-year-old girl, were hospitalized in critical condition. The boy later died from his wounds.
