MANSFIELD, Texas - A Texas school bus driver has been arrested after allegedly brandishing a knife and threatening three sixth-graders for leaving cookie crumbs on a seat.

Police say they confiscated a pocket knife with a 2-inch blade after taking the 66-year-old into custody.

Two students told their parents that William Allen took them out of the bus this week. He reportedly threatened to cut their wrists if they didn't admit eating Oreo cookies and leaving crumbs.

One parent said no matter how good an employee Allen is, the girls are "traumatized."

Allen has been taken to jail. A school administrator said he's been placed on paid administrative leave pending an investigation.

No, I think it would be good to know if he actually did what he's accused of first.

It wouldn't be the first time kids made up some bullshit to mess with a school employee.

Which is why all schoolbuses here come with digital video recording units in them now. something happens, the administrators can review the video and BAM whatever happened is clear.

Same here although I really don't like the thought of big brother at least the truth is apparent.
