Bus Driver Allegedly Shoved Black Students, Told Them to Sit in the Back..arrested_ fired

Video of shove

https://m.youtube.com/shorts/J50N5IzEd6w

It all started with the driver manhandling the six year old when he refused O'Neil's order to take a seat at the back of the bus, even though the standard seating is for the youngest children to sit at the front.

When the 10-year-old daughter intervened to defend her brother, the video appears to show O'Neil shoving her as well.

'Stop touching my brother!' the sister appears to shout at the driver.

'Shut your mouth!' the driver replies. 'Get back there!' O'Neil barks, pointing to the back of the bus.

Then he delivers a forceful shove to the sister, yelling, 'what a pain in the neck you guys are! Get out of here!'

'I was stunned…the emotional damage that it did…my kids don't want to go back to school…they don't want to get back on the school bus,' Carter said.
