A shocking new video shows two Michigan school bus drivers rescuing a toddler after the child’s parents’ vehicle was stolen while they were helping an older sibling off to school last week.
A frantic father runs up to a school bus in new footage released by Kelloggsville Public Schools.
“Call the police!” the man yells at the driver, with the child’s mother crying hysterically beside him. “Somebody steal the car. There’s a baby inside!”
Dave Skinner, a bus driver for the Grand Rapids area immediately called 911 and alerted his team to the situation.
“They screamed at me that someone had stolen their car with their baby in it,” Skinner said.
The parents allegedly stepped out of their vehicle to assist an older child onto a school bus when their vehicle, which contained the toddler, was stolen. Sue Figueroa, another bus driver in the area, noticed the toddler alone in someone’s driveway within minutes.
She scoops up the child and carefully places him into the front seat of the bus, and tells him, “I’ll bring you to your mama.”
Moments later, in the video, Figueroa drives up beside the mother and calls out, “Ma’am, is this your baby?”
She hands the child over to the woman saying, “He’s okay, He’s okay, He’s okay.”
“I was crying all day. It was very emotional. I was very relieved,” Figueroa said of the ordeal.
No arrests have been made in connection to the incident.
