The  incident took place on January 17, 2014 and Wells was fired. The union that represents Wells is fighting to get him back on the job. The case against the student has been sent to the Kenosha County District Attorney's Office. The teenager faces charges of recklessly endangering safety, and battery against a transit bus driver. Both charges are felonies.
