FULL TITLE: Girl, 16, on the run after vicious hammer and knife attack on another female student at their Catholic high school

Authorities in Nebraska are searching tonight for a 16-year-old student who allegedly slashed another girl in the face with a knife and beat her across the head with a hammer today.

Lincoln police said that Pius X student Sarah Piccolo attacked 17-year-old Ellen Kopetzky in the bathroom of the Catholic high school just before 9.45 a.m. (CDT).

The school immediately went into lock-down following the shocking event and Piccolo is said to have fled the scene in a grey 1992 Buick Park Avenue with Nebraska plate number TJM 557.

Lincoln Police Captain David Beggs confirmed that a large survival knife was recovered from the bathroom along with a claw hammer and so far, investigators have not speculated on a motive.

'It would be to her benefit to contact us,' Beggs said.

Piccolo is described as 5-foot 5-inches, 105 pounds, with brown hair and her family said that they were terrified for her.

'I’m just scared to death,' Sarah’s father, John Piccolo, said to the Journal Star. 'She’s out driving. She’s scared. She’s running.

'We don’t know where she’s at.'

The family of Ellen Kopetzky confirmed that she had undergone surgery at Bryan West Campus to treat multiple injuries and asked for well-wishers to offer prayers.

‘We don’t know where she’s at.’
She might be hiding behind the dangling preposition.


You’re correct....
