A Delco teen charged in a gunfight the night Fanta Bility was killed by police faces a judge at trial

In response, prosecutors reduced the charges they had filed against Ford and Strand. Strand pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in January 2022 and is serving a three-to-six year sentence in state prison. In response, Strand went to his car and retrieved a 9mm pistol, according to testimony. The witnesses said they heard gunfire, but couldn’t tell who was firing.

They mistakenly believed the gunfire had come from a car that had abruptly stopped in front of them, and they shot at the vehicle, authorities said. One of the 27 bullets they fired struck Fanta, who was leaving the stadium with her mother and older sister. Fanta died at the scene.
