[Friday Crime Stories] DEAD IN WALMART: Grandmother of teen girl stabbed dead in aisle speaks to Nancy

Melanie Lyons’ grandmother says the four girls charged in her granddaughter’s stabbing were looking to fight the 15-year-old’s sister. The four girls (a 12-year-old, two 13-year-olds, and a 14-year old) have been arrested. One of the girls is charged with second-degree murder and the other three are charged with principal to second-degree murder.

Footage of the stabbing, which was posted on Facebook and Instagram live, shows one girl armed with what appeared to be a knife as the victim approaches and lunges at her. Video shows the group of girls fleeing the store in a getaway car as one of them screams, “Just stabbed somebody at Walmart.”
