Caught on video: Elementary school girl dragged by school bus

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (ABC News) - Shocking video captured an elementary school girl in Louisville, Kentucky, getting dragged by her school bus.

On Friday afternoon, a Jefferson County Public School bus was letting off a young girl who was 5 or 6 years old, when "apparently her backpack got stuck in the door," Louisville Metro Police Department spokesperson Dwight Mitchell told ABC News today.

"The bus driver didn't know that," and the girl was dragged about 100 feet, Mitchell said.

Witness Esther Karschner said she didn't see the girl step off the bus, but saw the girl's legs hanging out of the bus as it drove down the road. Karschner also said she saw a car speed alongside the bus, honking to try to stop it.

The 100 foot estimate is way low.More like 300 ft.I hope someone saved the original footage before the cuts occurred.
