Lawrence bus driver accused of threatening to use Taser
A Lawrence bus driver was arrested Saturday after bus riders said she threatened them with a Taser, according to Lawrence police.
Police were called to the Lawrence Community Shelter just before 1 p.m. Saturday. The person who called, and others who rode the bus to the stop nearby, said the bus driver threatened them with a taser, said LPD spokeswoman Laura McCabe.
“After a thorough investigation, officers arrested the bus driver on suspicion of aggravated assault,” McCabe told the Journal-World.
Douglas County Jail logs, however, indicate that the driver was released and no charge had been filed.
The Journal-World has reached out to law enforcement and the City of Lawrence for more information about the incident.
