655548_39444540A substitute bus driver was charged Tuesday with simple assault after an altercation with a student on April 27, 2010.

The incident occurred in the area of East Main Street and 16th Street in the Town of Purcellville around 4 p.m. The bus driver, Lavangila N. McKissic, 35, of Round Hill, VA has been charged with simple assault.

The victim, a 15-year-old Harmony Intermediate School student, was listening to his MP3 player when McKissic told him to turn it down because it was too loud. After the victim did not turn down the MP3 player, McKissic stopped the bus in middle of road and grabbed the MP3 player from the victim while striking him.

A Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office School Resource Officer was notified of the incident the following day. A subsequent investigation led to the charge.

McKissic was released on a summons.
