One witness told The Post he helped four people on the bus – two students and two school staffers – get out of the vehicle. He was nearby when he heard a “loud boom” and ran over in slippers.

“Inside the bus it’s people screaming, it’s like a movie. Chaos,” pharmacist Justice Kwansa said, adding the students were panicking. “They didn’t know what happened.”
