Omobogie initially did survive and was transported to a hospital, but she died two days later from her injuries.

Because Omobogie’s friend is a minor, police are not naming her. She was taken to the Dallas County Juvenile Detention Facility.

The investigation is ongoing as investigators received a copy of the live-stream video.
