Sadly, a 12-year-old boy from Alabama took his life on Tuesday after having enough of being bullied by his peers.

Trey was known to the community as a good boy who liked to hug and always thought hugs would make everything better.  The young boy was being pressured to join the neighborhood gang and was bullied constantly by kids in the community.

The kids would take his lunch money, jump on him and threaten him severely.  The boy’s family says that he had been facing the bullies for a year and Tuesday proved to be too much for the boy.  His father says Trey informed him Monday that the children were still messing with him and the father says it must have gotten worse because Trey took his own life to stop the bullying.

No leads have been made on the death but it is under investigation. SMH
