Father, 37, 'storms onto grade school transport and holds a blade to the driver's throat' before twelve unnerved kids



A father has been captured for raging onto a grade school transport and holding a blade to the driver's head before around twelve youngsters in Southern California.


The driver supposedly observed Matthew Barker, 37, drawing nearer on Friday morning and expected that he was a parent endeavoring to hold the transport for a kid who was running late, neighborhood police in Campo, California, have said.

Barker overlooked requests from the driver not to enter the transport and attempted to push past him toward the youngsters, setting off a battle.

'He pivoted and I saw the blade,' 6th grader Jesus Jimenez told the San Diego Association Tribune.

The 12-year-old quickly sprung enthusiastically, opening the back exit of the transport and introducing the 10 to 12 shouting kids who fled to their folks outside.

One understudy's grandma saw what was occurring on the transport, perceived the man and got on board to help.

A disregarding driver pulled to help pry the blade out of Barker's hands.

Specialists have had communications with the 37-year old before.

'This isn't identified with school brutality, in essence,' Sgt William Uelen said in an announcement.

'This is a parent who has a medication issue. He's known in the group. Campo is a little group. We've had connections with him previously.'

Barker is presently under scrutiny for attack with a destructive weapon.

Jesus' mom, Dania Jimenez, said she's glad for her child's fast reasoning and activity to help get individuals out.

'Suppose they hadn't opened the entryway,' she said. 'They would've been stuck in the transport.'

Uelen disclosed to OnSceneTV that the kids were 'shaken up' by the episode.

'They were altogether conveyed to class and conveyed to a classroom where they could be conversed with and quieted down,' he said.
