A FEUD between teenage girls on Facebook has boiled over, ending with one of the girls dead and two injured.

The Facebook fight led to the girls planning to meet at a park in Birmingham, the capital of the US southern state Alabama, to settle their differences.

It is alleged that the group of teenage girls arranged the brawl, which they planned to film before posting the footage on social media.

“This was an absolutely senseless killing,” Lieutenant Sean Edwards, of Birmingham Police

...

Birmingham police arrested two suspects, a 17-year-old male and an 19-year-old male, who were identified by witnesses. Police said formal charges are pending.

Authorities believe one of the suspects was dating one of the girls who was fighting Rice

Don’t know right off the top, but if I was writing a story like this, I’d be sure to look it up....

It’s interesting, I did a search on this (the name Kierra’onna Rice is obviously pretty unique). It was reported in media all over the world, in a lot of languages.

Surprising to me, I’d consider it just another gangsta get together.

How many Americans know what the capital of Victoria or New South Wales is? Or even the Capital of Australia for that matter?

Well, if any Americans are writing for a supposed "news" outlet, and they get the capital of New South Wales wrong, the Australians are more than welcome to make fun of the author as an ignorant hack. Are you suggesting that we just do away with standards all together?

Nothing good comes from Facebook.

Millions of normal, responsible, reasonably intelligent, non-criminal people seem to be able to handle it just fine.

Who in the hell knows?

Wonder if her mother knew who her father was?

No, Vienna is in Germany. The capital of Australia in Cranberry.
