Student Left Alone on School Bus for More Than an Hour

A little boy was left on a Washington, D.C., school bus that reportedly had a bus driver and an adult attendant on board, reported FOX 5.

“I thought I was going to die, and at first, I thought it was a dream but it wasn’t,” said 7-year-old Antonio Grinage.

His mother, Arnise Grinage, said she received a phone call more than three hours later saying Antonio was left on the bus and had just arrived to school.

Antonio said he pried the doors open to get out. He was discovered walking around in a parking lot.

Arnise Grinage said this is not the first incident she has had with Antonio’s bus driver. She said on Friday, the bus came almost 30 minutes early to pick Antonio up.

She complained about it, and with this incident happening on Monday, she is concerned Antonio was left on the bus on purpose.

“He could have passed away or anything if he hadn’t woke up and pried the bus open,” Arnise Grinage said.
