A 15-years-old Texan girl, Jasmine Melendez, dies after a beating, and sexual assault.

According to family members, they found Jasmine in the front yard beaten with multiple injuries.

First responders then rushed her to a hospital in Dallas with fluid on her brain and head trauma.

However, the teen succumbed to her injuries after suffering a heart attack.

Following the teen's death, Midland authorities issued a statement.

They said:

"The Midland Fire Department responded to a call for medical assistance. And due to the nature of the call, involving a juvenile, asked the Midland Police Department for assistance."

"Midland Police responded, and an investigation is ongoing."

Jasmine Melendez was a big part of the Softball community in Midland and spent most of her time at the M.U.G.S. softball complex.

The people who knew Jasmine best are saying that although her death was tragic, it's who she was as a person that they'll remember.

Jennifer said:

"She was really compassionate and would just lift up everybody, you know what I mean. She was encouraging."

"People called her feet because she was crazy fast. Even the ones who needed help or guidance or anything, she would help them out. She was a great friend."

Jennifer added:

"Her smile lit it up the room; it lit up the field."
