"The next thing I know, POW! He lifted up the bus," said Devin Reed, the bus driver. "I was in total shock. My natural reaction is, 'Are my children OK?' So I'm checking to make sure all my children are OK."
The bus was carrying 25-30 students from Environmental Charter School from fourth to eighth grade, the driver told Channel 11.
None of them were hurt and Reed helped them get off the bus safely before police arrived.
