AUGUSTA, Ga. – Authorities say nine people have been charged with murder and another is being sought after a teenager was stabbed to death in a massive, chaotic brawl that involved baseball bats, pipes, knives and other weapons near Augusta.
Richmond County Sheriff Richard Roundtree says the killing of 18-year-old Demajhey Bell on March 18 was "the epitome of a senseless murder." Bell died Sunday at a hospital.
A woman told sheriff's deputies that 30 to 50 teens armed with baseball bats, pipes, knives and other weapons showed up to fight her 15-year-old daughter.
The Augusta Chronicle (bit.ly/25nvC48) posted video recorded from bystanders that shows girls fighting, boys attacking people with bats, and an out-of-control Dodge Charger that nearly runs over people.
Authorities said one man's arm was shattered with a baseball bat.
