Verona’s Finest
Last night, the death of Romeo Montague was tragically confirmed. Found slumped at the foot of his lover Juliet Capulet, the young romantic regretfully took his own life.
The problem really started here at around noon two days ago, in fair Verona, when Tybalt , Juliet's cousin, killed Mercutio, Romeo's best friend. Full of rage and in pursuit of revenge, Romeo regretfully killed Tybalt. Fleeing the scene, Romeo somehow managed to escape but when the prince heard
this, he burst in fury and sentenced Romeo to death. According to the Prince, ‘If Romeo returns to Verona, that hour would be his last’
All this has been caused because of a long feud between the Montague and Capulet families, who’s feud constantly disrupts our city from it’s peace. Unfortunately, the families have paid the price of their poisonous ways.
Revenge, love, and a secret marriage, force the young teenage lovers to grow up quickly. Fate causes them to commit suicide in despair. Romeo poisoned himself and on the other hand Juliet killed herself with a knife stuck in her heart.
ALL THIS IN THE NAME OF LOVE
We hope that this tragic incident brings peace between the two families that for years have hated each other with fury and resentment. We also hope that this incident brings peace to our city.
