Missouri Boy, 14, With Down Syndrome Suspended for Allegedly Sexually Harassing Bus Aide

Story here. Excerpt:

'A 14-year-old Missouri boy with Down syndrome whose mother says he “gives people hugs all the time” has been suspended from middle school for allegedly sexually harassing a bus aide, a school official told FoxNews.com.

Desi Mayberry, Central R-III School District superintendent, told FoxNews.com that Aleczander Fujiomoto, of Park Hills, Mo., grabbed an unidentified female bus aide while aboard a school bus last Wednesday and imitated a "sexual act" while on top of the woman, who is no longer considering pressing charges for sexual harassment.

"He grabbed her around her waist, like a bear hug, and then he gets on top of her and moves in a sexual motion, imitating a sexual act," Mayberry said.

The aide then "screamed for help," leading the school bus driver to separate Fujimoto and the aide, Mayberry said. The incident led to a "short-term" suspension for Fujimoto, according to Mayberry, who declined to indicate exactly how many days the boy was banned from school.

Mayberry said all of the district's buses have security cameras, but added that Fujimoto's mother was not allowed to see the footage of the alleged incident, despite her requests.'
