According to Santa Rosa Police Chief John Crregan explained, during a news conference, two Montgomery High School juniors entered an art classroom where the third student was located and started fighting with the student. The classroom had around 30 other students in attendance.
Fighting continued but was broken up by teachers. At that moment, the 15-year-old freshman produced a folding knife and stabbed the two juniors.
Chief Cregan said, “It appears that there had been some previous altercations between these students.” Cregan said neither of the 16-year-olds was armed.

A senior student, Owen Seiberling, told the San Francisco Chronicle he had been with the 16-year-old at the school office and had attempted to apply pressure to the multiple wounds. Seiberling said, “I had to pick him up, he was gushing blood.”
Both students were conscious when taken to the hospital, where one of the young students succumbed to his wounds and died. The other student was treated and expected to survive. The 15-year-old was found later in the day and taken into custody. The knife has not been found.
