A Georgia mother wanted a DeKalb County school bus driver sacked for not trying to separate students who were fighting inside the bus.
Chasrice Green showed a local outlet cellphone video, which shows a group of students on a DeKalb County school bus first attacking her 8-year-old daughter, then beating her 10-year-old daughter when she tried to defend her sister.
“My 8-year-old daughter, it looks like she’s on a seat, and she’s been pulled down by her hair by a bunch of people,” Green told Fox5.
Someone used one of the victims’ cellphone to record the violent assault.
Green’s two daughters, 8 and 10, attend Fairington Elementary School. The incident occurred last Friday afternoon during the ride home.
“Not only did Jayla get attacked by like 8, 9, 10, 11 kids however many were in there but my other daughter, if you look closely in the video, someone was pulling her by her hair like to the point where her head is almost in the backseat,” said Green.
Green is also angry that the school bus driver didn’t attempt to break up the fight. She contacted the female driver’s supervisor and said she was told the district would investigate the incident. Green desperately wants her fired.
“She doesn’t care what the kids do on the bus. She doesn’t even need to be an employee with DeKalb County public transportation.”
Green’s daughters haven’t returned to school since the attack. They told her they are scared.
In addition, Green wants the children involved in the assault to face disciplinary action.
“It was little boys hitting my daughters,” Green said. “It was bigger kids hitting my daughter. Like I said my baby’s only eight years old and then my 10-year-old was involved also they was pulling her braids like their scalp is hurting from her hair being pulled so hard.”
