The school bus, identified as bus number 77, was full at the time of the shooting, carrying students from Mount Holly Middle School. No students were injured, police said.

Both juveniles were interviewed by police and turned over to their parents. The case will be reviewed by the Gaston County District Attorney’s Office.
