Girl is accused of sexual assualt of boy, 6, on bus
`A girl in the eighth grade has been suspended from school as authorities investigate allegations that she fondled and bit the penis of a 6-year-old boy while on a school bus.
The incident occurred about 4 p.m. Tuesday on a bus returning children home from school, according to the boy’s mother, of Caseyville.
She said in an interview Thursday that she will now take her son and his 9-year-old sister to and from their school, Edgemont Elementary School.
“When you send your kid to school or put them on a school bus, you don’t expect to hear this,” the mother said. “He doesn’t want to take a bath or pull his clothes off now.”‘
