A Cherry Creek School District bus driver who aggressively grabbed a student on a broken-down school bus Wednesday was subsequently assaulted by a woman and sustained minor injuries, according to the Aurora Police Department. Officers responded to the area of South Kittredge Street and South Mission Parkway around 4 p.m. to a suspicious incident involving students on a school bus, said department spokesperson Sydney Edwards. Police found that after the bus broke down in the area, the bus driver “grabbed the student in an aggressive way,” Edwards said. A short time later, a woman arrived at the bus and, after the bus doors opened, began assaulting the driver, according to Aurora police. The woman fled the scene with the student before officers arrived. Investigators are working to identify the woman who left the scene and still determining if the student’s family wants to press charges against the bus driver, Edwards said. Cherry Creek School District is investigating the incident, spokesperson Lauren Snell said in an email. Families were informed of the incident in a phone call Wednesday, which stated that the bus stalled because of a mechanical issue, which meant the driver couldn’t open the doors right away.
