Where and when did ponyboy johnny cade murder bob?

Ponyboy Curtis and Johnny Cade did not murder Bob Sheldon.

This is a misunderstanding of the events in S.E. Hinton's novel "The Outsiders."

Here's what happened:

* Bob Sheldon, a member of the Socs, was killed in a fight with Johnny Cade.

* The fight started when Bob and his friends attacked Ponyboy and Johnny.

* Johnny stabbed Bob in self-defense when Bob was drowning Ponyboy in a fountain.

It's important to understand that Johnny acted in self-defense. He was defending himself and his friend from a violent attack.

Therefore, it's inaccurate to say that Ponyboy and Johnny murdered Bob.
