Bad Boys On The Bus

SEPTEMBER 27--A quartet of Florida boys ripped the clothes off fellow middle school students and photographed the terrified girls with their cell phones in a sickening school bus attack Friday afternoon. The boys, aged 12 to 14, were arrested and hit with felony battery and molestation charges for assaulting and groping the girls. According to the below Lake County Sheriff's Office affidavit, video recovered from an assailant's cell phone showed one girl, a 13-year-old Tavares Middle School student, yelling for help as the boys fondled her breasts (the boys showed off their camera phone images to school pals, cops said). Police identified the underage arrestees (who are pictured clockwise from above left) as Ronterius Hubbard, 14; Keson Evans, 14; and brothers Dexter, 13, and Devonte Maxwell, 12. (2 pages)
