Police Report

         A Fight broke out today causing two deaths. Witnesses explain the fight as silly, but tragic. It was never supposed to happen. When Tybalt, a Capulet, picks a fight with Mercutio things get a little out of control. It is said that this fight was mostly playful, and pretty much a joke. But, things get ugly by the end. Romeo Montague was said to be the guy trying to break up the fight, getting between the two angry fellows. When this happens it startles tybalt and he stabs Mercutio. One of mercutio’s friends describes Tybalt’s expression as horrified. It was almost like Tybalt didn’t mean to kill him. Since the fight was a joke to the crowd, and didn’t seem serious, nobody realized that Mercutio was seriously injured. Everyone thought it was just an act to get a laugh out of the crowd. When Mercutio finally falls to the ground showing his wound dripping with blood, the crowd was in shock. Mercutio died after a few minutes of this discovery. Tybalt is long gone after this. Being Mercutio’s best friend, Romeo hunts Tybalt down and declares war against the two of them. Romeo fights Tybalt for revenge. His anger rushing throughout Romeo’s body, he kills Tybalt. After Romeo realizes what he has done, he freaks out once again, witnesses explain. The king was notified and Romeo almost was put to death until someone explained what really happened. Instead of a death-sentence, Romeo was banished from Verona. More information is still trying to be discovered.
