Melody Ross, a 16-year-old honor student, was fatally shot following Friday night's homecoming game at Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach. Now the County Board of Supervisors wants answers and is expected to approve a $10,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest of the gunman.
Police described Ross as "an innocent bystander who was not involved" in the dispute that led to the gunfire.
"There was an argument between two groups of people and shots were fired into a crowd," said Long Beach Police Sgt. Dina Zapalski. Witnesses heard five to seven shots as the crowd left the stadium after Polytechnic beat Wilson, 34-15.
