Police released copy of Higley Unified School District School Bus video showing verbal and physical confrontation between a bus driver and a student.
The female student and possibly other students are reported to have been distracting the bus driver with arm action and talking, although this is not shown on the video before the bus driver stops the school bus.
The driver questions the student regarding why she is on the bus, but does not allow her to exit the bus.
The verbal confrontation escalates and becomes physical — involving the bus driver’s daughter, who is also a student.
Students are heard calling 9-1-1 when the fight becomes physical and students are also seen exiting the bus streetside out of an emergency exit on the driver’s side of the bus.
