Man waives hearing in bus boarding incident
A Butler man has waived his right to a preliminary hearing into charges he faces in an incident where police allege he entered a school bus and threatened students.
Clifford Jenkins Anderson, 43, of Butler waived his hearing into misdemeanor charges of terroristic threats, unauthorized school bus entry and harassment filed by Butler City police following the Oct. 6 incident.
At about 7 a.m. that day, police said a Valley Lines bus driver reported that a man entered the bus on Lincoln Avenue near Center Avenue, threatened students and used profane language. The driver told him to leave the bus several times before he complied, police said.
Police said they used video to identify Anderson as the suspect.
Police said it appeared that there was a dispute among children, and that Anderson allegedly decided to intercede.
