LAKELAND, Fla. (AP) - March 24, 2009
The bus driver wrote on a misbehavior form that a 15-year-old
teen passing gas on the bus Monday to make the other children
laugh, creating a stench so bad that it was difficult to breathe.
The bus driver handed the teen the suspension form the next day.
Polk County school officials said there's no rule against
flatulence, but there are rules against causing a disturbance on
the bus.
The teen said he wasn't the one passing gas.
Whether he did it or not, he might have gotten off easy. A
13-year-old student at a Stuart school was arrested in November
after authorities said he broke wind in class.
