Video shows fight between bus driver and students
Punta Gorda, Florida - Police have slapped the cuffs on a Punta Gorda bus driver for slapping a student. But now police have also charged the two students who allegedly started the fight.
The school bus’ security video purportedly shows the driver, Albert Taylor, slapping a 13-year-old and then grabbing him by the throat.
Taylor says it all started when a student on the bus refused to calm down. He pulled the bus over and called police before heading to the back of the bus. That's when the 13-year-old and his 15-year-old brother began yelling and cursing, escalating the fight.
The two teens face felony counts of assault, while Taylor is charged with a misdemeanor. The bus driver has also been suspended with pay.

"The bus driver has also been suspended with pay." In other words, he was rewarded with a vacation? Good school district they have down there :clap: . Too bad about Charlie.
