Boy Punished for Farting on the School Bus

PARMA, OH (By EMILY VALDEZ, Fox 8 News) — A 6th grade student from Parma was sent to detention for passing gas on the school bus.

His family thinks it's the punishment that stinks. Christian Summers, 11, had to serve an hour of detention after he farted several times while on the school bus -- prompting laughter from the children. The school bus driver did not find his flatulence funny.

"She's like, 'I'm gonna sign you up. I'm gonna sign you up.' I'm like, 'It was an accident." Christian, who attends Thoreau Elementary School, said.
