School bus driver stabbed to death in front of students in Washington state

A school bus driver was fatally stabbed in front of students after picking them up from a Washington state elementary school Friday afternoon, authorities said.

The alleged killer, who is now in custody, got on the bus near Longfellow Elementary in the city of Pasco around 3 p.m. and launched the knife attack as multiple children watched in horror, according to police. The victim lost control of the vehicle and crashed it near the school building, police said.

The unidentified driver was pronounced dead a hospital. No children were physically injured in the attack or crash.

The suspect’s name has not been released, but police said he was still at the scene when they arrived and was taken into custody without further incident.

More information is expected to be released Monday, said Pasco Police Capt. Bill Parramore.

“Pasco police detectives will be processing the crime scene throughout the night,” he told reporters in a prepared statement. “The Pasco Police Department will work in close partnership with the Pasco School District through this investigation.”

Pasco School District Superintendent Michelle Whitney said counselors would be available over the weekend and next week to meet with students who were on the bus and any staff affected by the incident.

Well, it’s in English and spanish, which might say something about the local demographics.

It very well could be. The media usually withholds names for agenda reasons.

All of these weird events are, imo ... a prelude to something big about to happen ...

Yes, the rapture of the church, and then the 7-year tribulation, which will culminate in the destruction of this earth by fire. Get to Jesus quickly. He died for you so you can escape the coming wrath.

I’m in Tri-Cities. I’m betting on homeless / psychiatric. Gang bangers go after their own and certainly don’t stick around for LE introductions.

"I’m in Tri-Cities. I’m betting on homeless / psychiatric."

That's always a strong possibility. I live in Shoreline just north of Seattle, and there are plenty of crazy people walking around out here. One of them recently smashed the window of a 7-11 in my area, and I'm always wary when I'm at a traffic light and one is nearby. Most are probably harmless, but you never know what they might do.

I spent almost a year at Pullman, WSU before I xfrd to Stanford. Before I left, I normally talked to the local cops and asked them who causes the biggest trouble here, they always tell me a “certain small demographic”.

And in Spanish. I was going to suggest that the stabber might be of the illegal persuasion. I wonder if the stabee might have been inappropriate with a student.

At least the killer is not a white male supporter of President Trump. If he were the name and photo would have been released immediately.

“Darquavious,” “Shaniqua,” or “Achmed” would be too obvious.

Waited at the scene? May have suspected the driver of molesting kids, or was an irate husband.

More than likely. If the perp was a WASP, the whole world would know his name.

Anyone else despise these boilerplate statements from the ruling class as mochas I do? Process these events my ass.

Only update I’ve seen is that the attacker was an adult male and the bus driver didn’t know him.

I wonder if “Dirty Harry” inspired that.

How do they really know that if the driver is dead?
