The hijacker forced his way onto the school bus with a rifle and commands to “Get out of town, now!” It was “one of the scariest” scenarios possible, law enforcement said later – 18 children and their driver, at the whims of a man with a gun earlier this month.
But the bus driver says the gunman was no match for the queries of kindergartners.
The man moved all the students up front of the bus headed for an elementary school in Columbia, S.C., driver Kenneth Corbin told “Good Morning America” this week. The gunman seemed intent on reaching the next town, at least 15 miles away. Then, the kids – the kindergartners especially – started peppering him with questions, Corbin said.
