Gregory Cornell, 37, was arrested after a 10-year-old girl claimed he
attempted to lure her into his car and then chased her down the street Sunday afternoon in Chester.
Cornell, who police identified as a school bus driver for the Penn-Delco School District, was taken into custody. He allegedly had $941 in cash and a permit to carry a concealed weapon on him when he was arrested.
No gun though. But...
Because of the permit to carry, police obtained a search warrant for the gold 1997 Infinity Cornell was driving. Maraini and Officers Sean Dougherty, Craig Scully and Joseph Schott searched the car and found 154 bags of suspected heroin, one bag of suspected crack cocaine, $170 in cash and a sex toy, according to the affidavit.
There is something about that combination of stuff that doesn't spell "Upright Citizen." At the very least it looks like he will have his permit to carry revoked.
Thanks for posting that side of the story. My 10yr old daughter rides the bus he drove. Her first reaction was "I can't believe he did this". Not saying he did nothing wrong, it was just shocking to hear about. The kids never had a complaint about him.
