Cops Arrest 13-Year-Old In Fatal Playground Fight

(CBS/AP) NEW YORK A 13-year-old boy was arrested on manslaughter charges after a deadly attack on another boy in a school playground, police said.

The suspect was arrested Friday. His name was not released because he was being charged as a juvenile, police said.

The victim, Guarionex Montas, 13, was beaten while playing basketball in Queens around 3:30 p.m. March 23, police said. They said the suspect hit Montas in the head several times.

Montas went to his Queens home and was sick to his stomach in the early evening, and later complained of a headache, according to his uncle, Manuel Cepeda. The boy went to sleep, but a relative realized late that night that he was bleeding from his nose and mouth. The boy was taken to a hospital, where he died the next morning.

A medical examiner later determined that a blow to the head had killed him.

"I know everybody says this about someone who dies, but he was the best kid," Cepeda, 40, told Newsday as the family gathered for a wake Tuesday. "He didn't have problems with anybody, with kids, with elders."

Re: OMG how sad

That is very very sad. What is even more sad is that a 13 year old has enough anger inside of him to be able to commit this type of crime. It leads me to believe he is seeing things no CHILD should be seeing whether it be in his home environment, television or maybe even video games of a mature rating. In my line of work, I see children in crisis everyday. I see this type of behavior in 5 year olds - no joke.

Playground fights have been happening since I can remember, but when did a scraped knee or elbow bruise turn into manslaughter? A 13 year old should know right from wrong, a lesson taught and modeled by adults.

Re: OMG how sad

what I don't get is- if it was that bad of a fight- then way don't you take your kid to the hospital right away

it's so sad- but I feel like more then just the kid who is charged played a role in this death
