She was found unconscious and transported to the St. Barnabas hospital suffering trauma to her head and entire body. She died at the same day.
School President Joseph McShane expressed his deep toward the incident: "There are no words sufficient to describe the loss of someone so young and full of promise and mere weeks from graduation. Fordham will confer a bachelor's degree upon Sydney posthumously."
