Army Recruit Charged After Allegedly Hijacking School Bus With 18 Children On Board An Army trainee in South Carolina has been charged after he allegedly hijacked a school bus packed with children. The suspect was identified as Jovan Collazo, 23, of New Jersey. Officials said Collazo was armed, but no one was injured in the incident. Collazo will face dozens of charges, including 19 counts of kidnapping for the 18 children and driver on board, according to Sheriff Leon Lott, of Richland County. Lott said it was "probably one of the scariest calls we can get in law enforcement." Brigadier General Milford Beagle said the recruit jumped the fence at Fort Jackson in an attempt to return home. Beagle said his weapon "did not have ammunition but those on the bus would not know that."
