Workers fired after 4-year-old left alone on D.C. bus

WASHINGTON – A bus driver and an attendant with the Office of the State Superintendent’s Department of Transportation have been fired after a 4-year-old boy with special needs was left alone on a bus.

D.C. officials say the boy fell asleep after getting on the bus at about 7:30 a.m. Tuesday. reports the student did not get off the bus at his school, and the two workers did not notice he was still on the bus when they left it at a bus depot.

The driver and attendant eventually found the boy – awake and not crying – at about 2 p.m. during a pre-trip inspection, WJLA says.

The boy was not hurt.
