Zander Lyda Obituary and Cause of Death
Zander Lyda, who was just 9 years old, met his untimely death at the hands of his sister. The tragedy was so devastating that even his mother had a hard time coping with the incident. A heart-wrenching video footage recently emerged of the little girl admitting to fatally stabbing her brother at their home in Oklahoma. This heartbreaking event has left a deep impact on everyone who knew the two siblings.
April Lyda, the mother of the girl who stabbed her younger son to death, has spoken out in an emotional interview. She has revealed that her daughter suffers from Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, which can lead to behavioral issues. Nevertheless, she is determined to support her child during this difficult time. She hopes that her daughter will go through a mental evaluation and receive the treatment she needs.
Her heartfelt words have touched the hearts of many, especially those who know her well. She also shares that her son was an incredibly kind and bright boy, who always brought a smile to their faces. He loved biking, playing Fortnite, and spending time with his family and friends. He was also a very dedicated student and a loving son. He had a radiant smile and was well-mannered. He was a true joy to be around.
April also spoke about her daughter’s mental health and disclosed that her daughter has been taking medication for over a year. However, she didn’t disclose what type of medicine her daughter was taking. She added that her daughter had never had any behavioral problems before the fatal stabbing.
The identity of the 12-year-old girl who stabbed her brother to death has not been made public by police. She is currently being held in a juvenile facility. The charges she is facing have also not been made public by the Tulsa police department. The 12-year-old girl reportedly lives with her parents and her brother in an apartment located in downtown Tulsa. The middle school student attends the same school as her brother.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help April Lyda in this trying time. It has raised more than $50,000 in a short period of time. The fundraiser has been managed by two individuals, Doug and Jenni Anthamatten, who have done a wonderful job in supporting the family of the victim. Besides, the fundraising efforts have helped many families of victims of recent deadly shootings in America and have made the community more aware of the dangers of gun violence. Donations are still being accepted for the campaign until October 31st.
