PORT ST. LUCIE -- Police are investigating the apparent suicide of an 11-year-old girl whose diary indicates she was being bullied at school.

Police say Celina Okwuone hanged herself in her closet Thursday night.

The 5th grader was found by her parents just before midnight.

Police say she used a belt to wrap around her neck and she had wrapped the belt around the metal shelving. Her father tried to lift her up and her mother tore the shelving from the wall.
