La conductrice en question est une femme nommée Michelle Passley, de North Aurora, et elle a été accusée lundi de délit mettant en danger la vie et la santé d'un enfant.

La police d'Aurora a publié une vidéo montrant la conductrice qui semble en état d'ébriété et qui transporte un sac de papier brun alors qu'elle est en plein travail.

La compagnie a dit qu'elle avait ensuite examiné les images de la caméra de bus.

Aurora Police arrest and charge school bus driver after she buys beer and drinks it while picking up students

Aurora Police have arrested and charged a school bus driver after she purchased beer at a convenience store and drank it while picking up students during a morning bus route in Aurora. \n\nOn Friday, November 15th, a manager from First Student Bus Company came to the Aurora Police Department to report an incident involving one of their drivers. The manager told the officer that an observant convenience store clerk called East Aurora School District 131 and told them they just sold beer to a woman and then watched her get onto a school bus and drive away. \n\nAccording to East Aurora School District 131, the district contracts First Student for bussing services and the bus driver is not an employee of the district. School district administrators immediately contacted the bus company to investigate the matter. First Student quickly reviewed video from the school bus which appears to show the driver drinking from two beer cans while picking up elementary students during one of the driver\u2019s morning routes.\n\nAs soon as the bus company reviewed the video, they contacted the Aurora Police Department and terminated the bus driver. At the same time, District 131 administrators also contacted the Aurora Police Department and the Department of Child and Family Services.\n\nAurora Police detectives opened a criminal investigation into the matter and began collecting evidence, looking at video clips, and interviewing witnesses. Detectives learned the bus driver picked up the school bus around 6:00 a.m. on Friday and completed one route. She then stopped at a gas station in the 900 block of North Farnsworth Avenue and purchased two cans of beer, returned to the bus, and drove off.\n\nDetectives reviewed video from the school bus, which shows the driver place the beer can into a brown paper bag and drink from it while driving numerous elementary school children on the bus. In all, 32 students were observed on the bus while the driver was drinking from the two beer cans.\n\n44-year-old Michelle Passley was arrested and charged with two Class A Misdemeanors counts of Endangering the Life\/Health of a Child. Aurora Police also contacted the Illinois Secretary of State\u2019s Office to review Passley\u2019s Commercial Driver\u2019s License.\n\nPassley was arrested Monday evening and released on $100 bond. She will next appear in the Aurora Branch Court on December 27th, 2019. \n\nThe Aurora Police Department is grateful for the initial concerned call to the district from the store\u2019s clerk and the quick actions by East Aurora District 131 administrators and the First Student Bus Company for reporting the incident, so an investigation could be initiated.Posted by Aurora Illinois Police Department on Tuesday, November 26, 2019

Passley a été congédié et la police a révélé qu'elle l'avait arrêtée lundi et qu'elle comparaîtrait le mois prochain.
