Teenage schoolgirl who allegedly stabbed fellow student sent chilling warning on social media
Seven News can reveal that a schoolgirl charged with stabbing a fellow student at an Adelaide college had posted a disturbing warning online days before the attack.
The teenager allegedly wrote that she had a hit list and was "ready to fire".
The school day had barely started when police converged on Trinity College in Adelaide's northern suburbs.
A teenager had allegedly brought a knife to school and attacked a 15-year-old girl, stabbing her multiple times in the stomach, arm and hand.
One student told 7 News that she heard “a girl’s been stabbed at North Campus, in the locker hallway… it was girl-on-girl.”
“Apparently she’s been saying stuff on Snapchat, so social media’s got an impact on the situation,” the student said.
Police have confirmed it was a targeted attack.
In a series of disturbing threats two days prior, the alleged stabber said she was sick of being "walked all over" in a post on social media app Snapchat.
“I’m sick of being walked over,” the girl allegedly wrote.
“I’m not sitting back and taking s*** no more. Got my hit-list lined up and ready to f****** fire.”
The shocking incident comes just two days after a plea from the parents of Seaford Secondary College student Libby Bell, who took her own life to end bullying.
In a letter to parents, Trinity College's principal Nick Hately said acts of violence were rare at the school and the situation had been "confronting".
The school is offering counselling to students and staff and has reassured parents they will be kept informed of any further developments.
The victim has since left hospital.
The accused stabber has been released on police bail and will appear in court in October.
