(Reuters) - Two girls, ages 12 and 14, have been charged with felony aggravated stalking in connection with the suicide of a 12-year-old Florida girl who was bullied online, the Tampa Tribune reported on Tuesday.
The Polk County Sheriff's Office said it would release details of the arrests at a news conference at 11 a.m. EDT (1500 GMT) on Tuesday.
Investigators said Rebecca Ann Sedwick of Lakeland, Florida, became despondent after being bullied for months by a group of girls who posted online messages telling her "You should die," and "Why don't you go kill yourself?"
On September 9, Sedwick climbed a tower at an abandoned cement plant and jumped to her death.
