Little Egg Harbor, NJ, Mourning Death of 12-year-old Boy
A letter sent to families by the Little Egg Harbor school superintendent says a 12-year-old boy died Sunday as the result of a "terrible accident."
The letter, from Superintendent Melissa McCooley, informs the school community of the death of Michael Brown.
The letter doesn't contain details of the accident, but in it, McCooley says, "The loss is sure to raise many emotions, concerns and questions for our entire school, especially our students."
In the letter, McCooley says a Crisis Intervention Team is part of the school's community and counselors and others will be available for students. The counseling for students will be available at no charge.
