An Attucks Middle School student has died after being placed on life support over the weekend. The 13-year-old Kashala Francis was involved in a fight off campus where she was jumped and kicked in the head. She walked away from the fight with bruises on her face. Although the teen insisted that she was okay, she would become weak two days later and complain of a headache before lying down. Her mother said that was the last time she opened her eyes. First responders took the unconscious Kashala to Texas Children’s Hospital where doctors discovered a tumor in the back of her head. It is unknown whether the fight contributed to Kashala’s condition. Houston and HISD police departments are working in partnership on this case. A Facebook donation page has been started to help with Kashala’s medical expenses. Search Kashala Francis/Loss Fundraiser on Facebook. Please pray for Kashala's family and all who knew and loved her during this most difficult time.
