Bus Driver gets Charged

The other day I wrote about a local bus driver who purposely chased and ran over an 18 year old boy killing him.

I was very happy today when I heard on the radio that the bus (jitney) driver is expected to be arraigned this morning on a manslaughter charge. Good.

You can't go around killing people with your vehicle and getting away with it. Then again, if you decide to rob a bus, expect that the driver ain't gonna take it either.

Late yesterday afternoon, the incident that had initially been classified as an accidental death, was confirmed by ASP Glenn Miller, head of the Central Detective Unit, that police intend to charge the driver of the jitney with manslaughter.

Bus Driver Plows into Man

I was shocked when I heard this horrifying news on the radio today.

Yesterday at about 11am in the area near the 'Seagrape Shopping Centre' on Prince Charles Drive, a bus driver chased a man on foot with his jitney and plowed him into a wall, trapping him underneath which lead to his death. The man who was on foot apparently had attempted to rob the bus beforehand. The departed has been identified as Elton Rufus Butler of Union Village who was killed on his 18th birthday.

The police have classified this incident as an accidental death, pending further investigations.
