BRONX - A 15-year-old girl has been arrested in the fatal stabbing of a 17 year old in Soundview, cops said. The murder stemmed from an ongoing social media feud between the victim and her alleged killer.



The NYPD has announced the arrest of a 15-year-old girl in connection with yesterday’s murder. The teen has been charged with murder, manslaughter and criminal possession of a weapon.



Police would not release the suspect’s name because she is a minor.



Police have identified 17-year-old Emery Mizell as the victim in the fatal stabbing. Cops said Mizell had allegedly been cyber bullied by the suspect on social media. 


At around 2:15 on May 2, officers from the 43rd Precinct responded to a report of a stabbing in Soundview. When they arrived at 1105 Boyton Avenue officers discovered 17-year-old Mizell with a stab wound to the chest. 



EMS rushed the teen to Jacobi Medical Center where she eventually died of her injuries.
