Father says 11-year-old son jumped from school bus to escape the situation
Middle school student recovering after jumping from bus
A Walton County middle school student is recovering after jumping out of a school bus. His father said he was trying to get away from bullies.
The 11-year-old boy is recovering from a concussion and a broken elbow. Family said they notified the school of previous incidents and this one pushed the boy too far. Death. [That s the] first thing I m thinking when I hear you jumped out a vehicle because I m curious if it was moving and I m thinking about moving traffic and I was concerned he d get ran over or killed, Dion Murphy said.
