15-year-old daughter Alexandria Bell killed in shooting at St. Louis high school
Andre Bell was heartbroken when he got a phone call Monday morning. “It’s a nightmare,” Bell said according to KHOU 11.
Bell’s 15-year-old daughter Alexandria Bell was fatally shot in her classroom at Central Visual and Performing Arts High School in south St. Louis.
“My daughter’s mother called me and that’s how I found out. I didn’t initially think the call was real,” Bell said.
After the shooting, Bell was interviewed by 5 On Your Side’s Robert Townsend.
“Alexandria was my everything. She was joyful, wonderful and just a great person,” he said.
Alexandria was a 10th grader at the school. Bell says she had an outgoing personality, loved to dance and was a member of her high school’s junior varsity dance team.
“She was the girl I loved to see and loved to hear from. No matter how I felt, I could always talk to her and it was alright. That was my baby,” Andre Bell said
Alexandria’s health teacher, 61-year-old Jean Kuczka, was also killed during the shooting.
The teacher worked for St. Louis Public Schools for 20 years.
“I am so upset. I need somebody, police, community folks, somebody to make this make sense,” Bell said.
The father has many questions about the deadly shooting that took his daughter’s life, one month before her 16th birthday.
“I really want to know how did that man get inside the school? I’m just trying to find some answers. My daughter was planning on coming out here to California and celebrate her birthday with me on Nov. 18, but now we have to plan her funeral,” Bell said.
