Deputies said 25-year-old Bryan Francois was following a school bus in a Toyota Camry and, after all the students were dropped off, approached the vehicle and threw brass knuckles through a window, which resulted in about $400 in damage.
Earlier that morning, Bryan’s sister, 33-year-old Natasha Francois, had reportedly boarded the same bus without permission and engaged in a verbal altercation with the driver. Deputies said she refused multiple requests to leave before eventually exiting the bus.
