A Pennsylvania school bus aide is charged with stabbing a nurse at the school and holding a 14-year-old student hostage at knifepoint in a bizarre burst of violence.

Police said the incident unfolded shortly after 9 a.m. Wednesday during morning drop-off at the Watson Institute, a school for special-needs students in Allegheny County.

Rochelle Pinkle, an aide at the Sewickley school, allegedly stabbed the school nurse twice in the back, then grabbed the student and led him at knifepoint back inside her bus, WTAE-TV said.

She released the teen after police arrived but struggled with the cops and had to be zapped with a stun gun before she was taken into custody, according to the outlet.

Pinkle was hit with 13 charges, including aggravated assault and endangerment.

Oh dear. Better look at those employee screening laws again.

Then again, maybe not.

Do I even need to look?

She's white, and she's unhappy.

Well in the old days if you misbehaved on the bus you got your @ss kicked off and you could walk to school or your parental unit could transport you.

Now they gotta have bus sheriffs on board.

It used to be called the D. T. Watson Home for Crippled Children. My father said the rumor was the place was originally built for the wealthy Pittsburgh area families to hide their "defective" children, sometimes due to birth defects caused by inbreeding.

She’s wide, and she’s unhappy.

Do I even need to look?

That's what I was thinking my own self. But I did look and it was a rare occasion that I was wrong in my assumption.

Thank God she’s not wearing corduroy pants.

“... bus sheriffs on board”

Many school districts with special education buses have aides. The aide assists the kids on and off the buses, help in their seat, keeping them calm etc.

[LastDayz]

Well..... I did. At least she’s not wearing pajama bottoms.
