Yesterday, a deadly sword fight broke out in Verona, leaving Mercutio and Tybalt dead and Romeo on the run, all caused by family hatred. It seems that the Capulet-Montague fight has gone too far. An eye-witness recalled the event: "I saw Tybalt and Mercutio with their swords drawn. Both were very angry, but Tybalt seemed to have an uncontrollable rage. When I looked closer, I saw that the young Romeo Montague had stepped between them. He was trying to break up the fight and avoid further conflict. Nothing was going to stop Tybalt, though. He stabbed Mercutio with his sword and ran away." Apparently, Tybalt was angry because the Montague boy had come to a Capulet party. A representative from the Capulet family explained: "Romeo just wanted to cause trouble. I think that he came to the party just to start a brawl. Tybalt took this matter into his own hands." On the other hand, a Montague described his view of the issue: "Romeo had no intentions of starting a fight. He went to the party to find his beloved Rosaline and ask her to return her love." It seems as if the families do not know what is fact and fiction. The Prince also commented about the familys' dispute: "I will not allow any more fights involving the Capulets and the Montagues. The feud needs to end. It is endangering the other people of this city and has gone too far." Many people agree. The fighting needs to stop. sk
