A fight broke out between the group of young boys and Luis Ramirez, who died two days later from his extensive injuries. Witnesses reported the boys yelling racial slurs at Ramirez, and many in the town were left to wonder how these honor students and “good kids,” according to family and friends, were involved in such a brutal and deadly beating.

16-year-old honor student Derrion Albert was hit in the head by a student wielding a wooden board. He immediately fell to the pavement, and gangmembers started stomping on and punching him.
