School Bus Driver Allegedly Chokes 8-Year-Old Boy

Police are investigating an incident of a bus driver allegedly choking an 8-year-old passenger aboard a Bronx school bus because, as the New York Post reported, the kid was throwing basketballs at him while he was driving.

Police sources claimed that boy was headed home from school when he started “acting unruly” with a group of friends.

The driver was forced to stop multiple times to reprimand the children and demand that they stop throwing the sporting equipment at him so he could safely drive the bus.
