School Bus Violence

Assignment:

You're a tv news director and the news just came over the scanner. There's been a multiple shooting on a St. Louis city school bus. At least one fatality is involved. Once crews are sent to the site of the shooting, the hospital and the school you have to think beyond spot news coverage. For 5, 6 and 10 you want a segment about violence on school buses and what school systems around the country are doing about it. You want numbers, examples and leads on good sources.

Approach:

Hint: You may want to start with a concept search in Excite. Try +school +bus +violence.
