A staff member at Kennedy High School in Silver Spring has died.
“With great sadness, I must inform you of the unexpected death of a Kennedy High School staff member,” Principal Dr. Joe Rubens wrote in a letter to families Thursday. “Mr. Kofi Frempong, as Coordinator of our schools’ Leadership Training Institute (LTI), was a wellknown member of our community.”
“Mr. Frempong was a loving husband and father. I know you join me in extending our deepest sympathy to the Frempong family,” Rubens wrote.
According to Anne Arundel County Police, 47-year-old Kofi Frempong, of Bowie, was shot and killed by his nephew in a homicide/suicide on Wednesday in Glen Burnie. Police said evidence indicated 27-year-old Daniel Amponsah turned the firearm on himself before officers were able to reach him.
