Stupid Criminal: A Bus Driver Was Arrested for Blasting the Heat to “Punish” Students

Kids these days would usually appreciate a bus driver who “cooks.”  But not like this.

A 75-year-old school bus driver in Pennsylvania named Harvey Sliker is facing charges after police said he threatened the children he was driving, and punished them by CRANKING THE HEAT.

Parents say their children got off the bus “crying and extremely sweaty.”

Harvey demanded that the kids close all the windows, and then turned the heater on full blast.  Supposedly it was 74 degrees outside, but inside, it was at least 95 to 100 degrees.

He allegedly told the kids, “I am going to cook you all”, and also threatened to bring a paddle the next day.  Investigators say the students were between the ages of 5 and 12.

Harvey was charged with simple assault and reckless endangerment, and he won’t be driving for the district ever again.  It’s unclear what set him off in the first place, or what he thought the “mobile sauna” would accomplish.

There’s no indication that any of the kids were seriously hurt.
