newspaper article

This just in Romeo, Tybult, and Mercutio were involved in a deadly sword fight yesterday on the streets of Verona because Tybult was upset that Romeo went to the Capulet ball, but in the end Tybult killed Mercutio and Romeo killed Tybult. After the incident the Prince said that his blood has been shed because of the feud between the Capulets and the Montagues. He also banished Romeo even though he fought for his cousin, Mercutio. The reason this all happened is because the Capulets and the Montagues fight with each other and they been warned to stop fighting. The prince had warned them that if they fought one more time, the consequences would be dramatic. Due to this the prince had told them that they lost all their chances to fight with each other and that he had to banish Romeo to try to stop all the fighting. There were a few eye witnesses that saw the whole thing. Benvolio was one of them and when asked he told them what happened in a way that favored Romeo. He did this to try to help him so he wouldn't get in that much trouble. Lady Capulet was very upset about the whole thing. She wanted a deadly punishment to the person who killed Tybult, which was Romeo. On the other hand Montague said that Romeo wouldn't do this a purpose. He also hinted that Tybult probably started the whole thing so all things were even. Even though these things were said, the end of the scene leaves us with Romeo being banished.
