Fifteen-year-old BB Coke High School pupil charged over alleged campus bathroom robbery

ST ELIZABETH, Jamaica — A 15-year-old girl enrolled at BB Coke High School has been criminally charged over the alleged assault and robbery of another pupil inside a school bathroom in May.

Authorities are withholding the accused teenager's identity because of her age. She faces counts of robbery with aggravation and assault occasioning bodily harm.

Reports indicate that on May 26, 2026, at about 11:00 am, a 13-year-old student was in the restroom when the charged teen, along with two masked females, approached her.

It is alleged that the older student struck the younger girl across the face three times with her hand, then pressed her foot into the complainant's stomach. The victim reportedly suffered bruising, swelling, and pain.

Sources further allege the accused held a knife to the 13-year-old's neck and removed $450 in cash from her pocket. The teenager was charged later.
