Hero bus driver saves 9 kids before school bus goes up in flames GMA TEAM, KIRK COHALL and SEAN SANDERS Wed, March 20, 2024 at 9:41 AM CDT·2 min read 47 A Louisiana school bus driver is being hailed a hero after she jumped into action and helped nine children off a school bus before the vehicle was engulfed in flames. Kia Rousseve, a bus driver for Community Academies of New Orleans, was on her way to her fifth bus stop along her usual route on March 13 when she realized something was wrong and her mother's instinct kicked in. "I put my motherhood on. I have a child, so I thought about them kids like it was my own child," Rousseve told "Good Morning America."

(The Exchange) The 28-year-old said she first knew something wasn't right when the school bus she was driving started to lose power. "The bus started acting crazy and started jerking and going real, real slow," Rousseve recalled. The incident was caught on a nearby security camera. In the footage, Rousseve is seen pulling over, and a bystander runs to let her know that flames are coming from underneath the school bus.
