Teen girl stabbed to death in school by love rival, both straight-A students

WARREN, Mich. -- (WXYZ) -- A 16-year-old student at Warren Fitzgerald High School was stabbed to death at the school Wednesday morning, according to Warren Police. The victim was reportedly stabbed twice in the chest.

Police say a 17-year-old girl is in custody for the stabbing death. Warren Police Commissioner William Dwyer said there is a male student who is also involved in the incident, and it's possible that both the victim and the suspect had a relationship with the male student. He is cooperating in the investigation, according to police.

The two girls had known each other and had been friends, and were both straight-A students. The victim was identified as Danyna Gibson, a member of the cross country team, robotics club, color guard, marching band and National Honor Guard Society, student council and Generation of Promise.

Dwyer said they are asking for a murder warrant charging her with homicide. The degree will be determined by the Macomb County Prosecutor's Office.
