“#Army trainee charged after hijacking school bus full of kids<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

An Army trainee in South Carolina hijacked a school bus<\/a> carrying elementary school children before ordering them out and driving away, a report said.<\/p>\n

Jovan Collazo, 23, of New Jersey, barged onto the bus wielding his M4 rifle after fleeing Fort Jackson in Columbia at about 7 a.m., WIS-TV reported<\/a>, citing police.<\/p>\n

The army trainee got on as children from Forest Lake Elementary school were boarding, then asked the driver to take him to a neighboring town, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said at a morning news<\/a> conference.<\/p>\n

There were 18 children on the bus at the time, some of whom began calling their parents to alert them to the horrific situation.<\/p>\n

Collazo \u201cgot a little frustrated\u201d after the frightened children repeatedly asked if was going to harm them, police said, leading him to order everybody off the bus.<\/p>\n

He drove several miles before abandoning the bus with the firearm inside, the report said.<\/p>\n

Authorities later determined the rifle was not loaded.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut to those in the community \u2014 those on the bus would not have known that,\u201d said Fort Jackson Commander Brig. Gen. Milford H. Beagle Jr.<\/p>\n

Collazo was later caught by deputies in a nearby residential area.<\/p>\n

He is charged with 19 counts of kidnapp<\/a>ing, carjacking and possessing a weapon on school property, the report said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was a failure in our accountability procedures that we truly regret and are apologetic to our community,\u201d Fort Jackson officials said in a statement.<\/p>\n
