More Details About Abandoned Boy on School Bus

The bus driver who was arrested after forgetting about a 3-year-old student left on the bus has received multiple tickets for public drinking, according to the Daily News. Terry Rocker, as well as bus matron Charlene Powell, left autistic Jose Gabriel Lopez (pictured) on a bus for six hours; the child was discovered when his mother went to PS 168 to pick him up--only to be told her son never arrived! The News also reports that Rocker and Powell found the boy on the short bus at "about 1 p.m. and held him for a couple of hours, hoping to bring him back to the school and mix him in with other students without being discovered," but he was found by a teacher after 2 p.m.! Jose's parents decided not to put him on a school bus yesterday.
