Authorities say two teens are in custody after they attacked and tried to shoot a student on a school bus in Prince George's County earlier this month.
WASHINGTON - Authorities say two teens are in custody after they attacked and tried to shoot a student on a school bus in Prince George's County earlier this month.
Officers say a 14-year-old boy from Suitland and a 15-year-old boy from Temple Hills were both charged in the alleged attack.
They are charged as adults with attempted first and second-degree murder, assault, and additional charges.
Officials are still searching for the third suspect.
The alleged attack happened May 1 on a Prince George's County school bus after the driver stopped to let a student off at a stop by Iverson Mall. Police say the three teenage suspects wearing masks and hoodies pushed their way past the bus aide and began attacking the student.
One suspect pointed a gun at the boy's chest and pulled the trigger, but the gun jammed. The bus aide said bullets fell to the floor.
Anyone with information on this case is urged to contact Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS. A cash reward is available.
