FULL TITLE: Girl, 16, on the run after vicious hammer and knife attack on another female student at their Catholic high school

Authorities in Nebraska are searching tonight for a 16-year-old student who allegedly slashed another girl in the face with a knife and beat her across the head with a hammer today.

Lincoln police said that Pius X student Sarah Piccolo attacked 17-year-old Ellen Kopetzky in the bathroom of the Catholic high school just before 9.45 a.m. (CDT).

The school immediately went into lock-down following the shocking event and Piccolo is said to have fled the scene in a grey 1992 Buick Park Avenue with Nebraska plate number TJM 557.

Lincoln Police Captain David Beggs confirmed that a large survival knife was recovered from the bathroom along with a claw hammer and so far, investigators have not speculated on a motive.

'It would be to her benefit to contact us,' Beggs said.

Piccolo is described as 5-foot 5-inches, 105 pounds, with brown hair and her family said that they were terrified for her.

'I’m just scared to death,' Sarah’s father, John Piccolo, said to the Journal Star. 'She’s out driving. She’s scared. She’s running.

'We don’t know where she’s at.'

The family of Ellen Kopetzky confirmed that she had undergone surgery at Bryan West Campus to treat multiple injuries and asked for well-wishers to offer prayers.

If she leaves the city you would think she would be easy to find in the wide open spaces.

Well, without a picture, her guilt cannot be determined.

I cannot type and I am too old to give a rip now.

I saw it when i hit send but waited for the grammar police to flag it. It is better to ask forgiveness than get permission.

The grammar police are like pigeons in a Skinner box. They can't help pecking the button.

I did the same thing. Both classrooms have doors to the outside. I told my boys to run and meet up at the gas station down the road about a klick away.

I’d be worried that they would bring her back. Their darling little daughter sounds psychotic-bats**t crazy. If it were MY daughter she attacked, I would be out looking for her and it wouldn’t be good when I found her. Seriously-we need asylums for all these mentally deranged people. Let’s see what ‘problems’ she’s had, ‘meds’, etc. I’m sick of parents and society who protect dangerous,insane kids who need a bottle full of drugs to help them be ‘semi-normal’. They protect them- and innocent people get attacked by them.

My guess would be something to do with a 65 Vespa scooter. Pistachio green.

Until they change the rules on involuntary committments to be longer than 72 hours you're gonna see this stuff. The way the law is now you cannot involuntarily hold someone for more than 72 hours unless they present a clear and present danger to themselves and others. Of course if the parents are in denial about their childs mental illness then they are absolutely at blame if the kid goes and does something stupid or violent. I have no problem with holding the parents responsible if they clearly knew what their child was capable of.

***
But dad’s not horrified that his daughter would do such a thing?

My guess is she was retaliating at a bully. She had enough.

From the size and weight, that would be my guess too. If she ever gets back into school which is doubtful, I can pretty much guarantee none of the mean girls will ever mess with her again.

After reading the entire article, I take it back. The girl she attacked doesn’t seem to be the mean girl type. Changing my guess to bat guano crazy.

Perp in custody. The story is that she has no relationship with the victim.
