A fight between two teenagers outside a Rochester pizza chain early Friday ended with one dead and the other with a neck wound, police said.
Jose J. Negrete, 15, of Rochester, was pronounced dead at Mayo Clinic St. Marys Campus after officers found him lying in a Domino's Pizza parking lot with a stab wound to his chest shortly after 12:30 a.m., police said.
Rochester police responded after Domino's employees called about a knife fight breaking out in front of their restaurant on the 4100 block of E. Frontage Road.
Negrete was "not at all" responsive in the parking lot, police said. Officers administered CPR and he was taken to the hospital by 12:45 a.m., where he was pronounced dead.
Shortly after Negrete was transported, a second 15-year-old boy arrived with his mother at Mayo Clinic St. Marys seeking treatment for a stab wound to the neck, police said. The injured teenager, who underwent surgery, is not in critical condition.
Investigators determined the two teens had been involved in the fight, authorities said.
"We have to determine yet whether it was self-defense or something else," said Lt. James Evenson of the Rochester Police Department.
No one has been arrested, and police don't expect any arrests in the "near term" but are treating the investigation as a homicide, Evenson said.
