No. Its Bellatrix. If you look at the UK version of Deathly Hallows, it clearly says that Molly fought "...wand to wand with the woman who killed her son."

No Molly fought and killed Bellatrix because she fired a killing curse that almost hit Ginny

I found this on a Harry Potter wiki:

Fred, along with his family and friends, returned to Hogwarts in the spring to participate in the final battle. He and George were assigned to defend the castle's secret passages by Kingsley Shacklebolt. When the Death Eaters forced their way inside, Fred fought next to his brother Percy, who had recently been reconciled with the family and combatted his former boss, Imperiused Minister for Magic Pius Thicknesse. Fred was killed in an explosion possibly caused by Augustus Rookwood.

Fred participated in The Battle of Hogwarts. As he was defending the castle's passageways alongside Percy, Ron, Harry, and Hermione an explosion possibly caused by Death Eater, Augustus Rookwood, killed him.


"The air exploded. They had been grouped together, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Fred, and Percy, the two Death Eaters at their feet, one Stunned, the other Transfigured; and in that fragment of a moment when danger seemed temporarily at bay, the world was rent apart. Harry felt himself flying through the air, and all he could do was hold as tightly as possible to that thin stick of wood that was his one and only weapon, and shield his head in his arms: He heard the screams and yells of his companions without a hope of knowing what had happened to them-
And then the world resolved itself into pain and semidarkness: He was half buried in the wreckage of a corridor that had been subjected to a terrible attack. Cold air told him that the side of the castle had been blown away, and hot stickiness on his cheek told him that he was bleeding copiously. Then he heard a terrible cry that pulled at his insides, that expressed agony of a kind neither flame nor curse could cause, and he stood up, swaying, more frightened than he had been that day, more frightened, perhaps, than he had been in his life...
And Hermione was struggling to her feet in the wreckage, and three redheaded men were grouped on the ground where the wall had blasted apart. Harry grabbed Hermione's hand as they staggered and stumbled over stone and wood.
'No-no-no!' someone was shouting. 'No! Fred! No!'
And Percy was shaking his brother, and Ron was kneeling beside them, and Fred's eyes stared without seeing, the ghost of his last laugh still etched upon his face."
-Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 31, pages 636-637.

No, Molly killed Bellatrix because she was attacking Ginny.

No, Rookwood didn't. According to the UK Version, Molly fought "...wand to wand with the woman who killed her son." Unless I'm mistaken, Rookwood is a male, and also, that line comes from the fight between Bellatrix and Molly.

I've just read the original UK version. It doesn't say that. That line doesn't appear anywhere between Molly beginning to fight Bellatrix and Bella's death. I just rechecked the section.

Well, someone (know one is really sure who) hit the wall with a cursed that missed it's target and it caused the wall to explode, killing Fred.
In the book it never mentions someone killing Fred all it said was that the wall collapsed by an explosion and that Fred was dead. In my opinion Fred was too good to die a death so normal.

Hokay...Rookwood killed Fred by blowing up a wall wich subsequently fell on said twin's head, killing him instantly (hense the laugh still eched on his face).
Later, Bellatrix says: "When Mummy's gone the same way as Freddy!" NOT to boast that she herself had killed him, but to provoke a negative reaction from Molly in order to gain the upper hand in the fight. Molly was fighting Bellatrix to prvent another of her children from being killed by the Death Eaters in general. And JK needed a way to kill off Bella that was fitting to her charcter.
When Molly shcreams "YOU WILL NEVER TOUCH MY CHILDREN AGAIN" or something along those lines, she ment 'you' as in the Death Eaters collectively, not 'you' as in Bellatrix speciffically.

Flickerflame said:
We don't actually know. Fred is killed when a portion of the castle's walls is destroyed in an explosion, but whoever caused that explosion isn't revealed.

Soon afterwards, Percy begins chasing after Rookwood, implying that maybe Rookwood killed Fred, but Percy may have been blaming the Death Eaters in general with Rookwood being the nearest he could identify. Rookwood was also pursuing other students at the time.

Molly also says "you will never touch our children again" to Bellatrix before she kills her, but it could be a collective you.

Augustus Rookwood was NOT the Minister, Pius Thickneese was.

BlackHound is right... Rookwood is NOT the minister of magic. Pius Thicknesse is and in the MOVIE Voldemort kills Pius, not in the book.

Bellatrix Lestrange. I'm surprised more people don't know that one. Bellatrix jinxed him, then he fell against the wall and died. It's proved when Bellatrix says to Molly Weasley "You want to die like little Freddie?" or something along those lines. Molly kills her after she (Bella) tries to kill Ginny. My fav. line is Molly saying "NOT MY DAUGHTER YOU BITCH!" The first time in all of the books that I have read any word resembling a swearword. (bloody doesn't count)

I reckon it was Roockwood, too, but it makes it more intense if it was Bella. But then, Percy does run after Rookwood, so I'll hazard a guess at Rookwood. :D

According to the UK edition of Deathly Hallows, which is also read out to us in the special features of Deathly Hallows pt 2:

"During the final battle, Molly Weasley fights wand to wand with the woman who killed her son. Jets of light flew from both wands..."

As noted above. it says "...fights wand to wand with the WOMAN who killed her son." And this was during the battle between Molly and Bellatrix. Therefore, Bellatrix caused the explosion that killed Fred.

As for why Percy called out Rookwood and chased after him... Well, that could be because Percy knew him from the ministry.

dragonsmemory said:
No one can really be sure. HOWEVER, Thicknesse could have killed Fred, meaning to hit Percy.
Bellatrix mist likely was nowhere near Percy and Fred, otherwise we probably would have seen some of her spellwork.
Percy xhased after Rookwood. Thus, two theories are possible. The least likely is thhat Rookwood killed Fred then ran. Most likely is that Rookwood was standing some distance away.
Thus, Pius Thicknesse is the last one standing. As Sherlock Holmes would put it, the answer is the last option left, no matter how unlikely.

In the movie, I think Augustus Rockwood did. He disarmed and cornered him. (You can see him being disarmed in the second deathly hallows movie when Vodemort is telling Harry to meet him in the forbidden forest.)

In the book, he was killed because of an explosion. I think Rockwood caused that explosion too, because Percy screamed, "ROCKWOOD!".
