Story out of Jerome, Arizona:
A Jerome bus driver has been fired after a video surfaced on social media - showing a confrontation between the driver and a student that included the bus driver pouring water on the student.
The Northside Bus Company confirmed to KTVB on Saturday that bus driver Mary Black was fired. The company wouldn’t go into further details because they say it’s a personnel issue.
The video shot by Jerome High School freshman Brayan Alverez shows Mary Black pouring water on eighth grader Miguel Martinez.
In the video, Black can be heard demanding that when Martinez speak to her he do it in English.
“I don't understand Spanish. I'm not going to learn it. I live in America and it's an English-speaking country. So if you want to speak to me, speak to me in English,” Black can heard saying in the video.
According to Juan Espino, who’s a family friend of Alverez and is also the one who posted the video, this isn’t the first time Black has said something like this. Cont. (Video)
