Zion Baker was dragged for around 10 feet before he was able to free himself, but was then run over by the bus's back tire.
A 12-year-old boy in North Carolina had a lucky escape on Wednesday after he was run over by his own school bus after his bag got stuck in the vehicle's doors.. And though he has been released from hospital, his mother has criticized the conduct of the bus driver involved.
"She pulled away and it dragged me, and I fell," Zion explained. He said he was dragged around 10 feet before he was able to break free from the bag. But as he fell to the floor, one of the bus's back tires ran over him. The as-yet unidentified bus driver was charged with careless and reckless driving, and Moore Country Schools sent a statement to WTVD stressing that"the employee is not currently driving a bus."Richard Levine/Corbis via Getty Images/Getty
