A MTA Bus driver found the victim lying on the street
The victim was discovered by Francisca Biascbrea, a MTA Bus driver. She first thought the victim lying on the road was a doll. She stopped the bus and got out. She immediately called 911 after she realized it was a young boy.
When the EMS and the police arrived they confirmed that the boy had died at the scene of the accident. The police were also able to obtain the GPS bus position and find the driver who was taken into custody for questioning . No charges were filed so far.
The fatal school bus accident occurred just a week after another driver who killed a 4 year old after dropping him at school and leaving the scene of the accident was charged with acting in a manner injurious to a child, leaving the scene of a fatal accident and criminally negligent homicide (see previous blog )
