SUGAR LAND -- A Missouri City teenager injured in a fight with another youth earlier this month has died.
Police will not know if the death was caused by the injuries sustained in the fight until an autopsy is performed.
Fredrick Conner, 15, was injured a few minutes after 11 p.m. Feb. 6 in a parking lot behind Sugar Land Methodist Hospital in the 16500 block of the Southwest Freeway, said Sugar Land police spokeswoman Pat Whitty.
Witnesses told police that Conner and the other teen were arguing earlier in the evening at the First Colony AMC movie theater and that they agreed to meet in the parking lot to fight.
Whitty said that when police arrived at the scene emergency medical technicians were tending to Conner, who had a large cut through his lip and a possible broken jaw.
According to police, Conner's injuries were caused by a single blow from a 14-year-old boy who left the parking lot before officers arrived.
Conner, a student at Quail Valley Middle School, was taken to Polly Ryon Hospital in Richmond but was unable to give officers a statement because of his injuries.
He was then transported by Life Flight Helicopter to Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, where he died Wednesday.
Police know the name of the suspect, but no arrest has been made pending the outcome of the investigation. Whitty said possible charges against the 14-year-old will depend on the autopsy results.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Sugar Land police at 281-275-2524 or Fort Bend Crime Stoppers at 281-342-8477.
