THE 14 year old boy has died after the Dayton ISD school bus hit and run accident. He was in intensive care , critically ill on ventilator downtown. Very sad. Pray for the family, friends, school.
Brantley Conner, an 8th‑grader at Woodrow Wilson Junior High School and a football player, was seriously injured and taken to Texas Children's Hospital, where he received intensive care after he was struck October 16, 2026. His family said he "fought with everything he had" before passing away on October 22, 2026. The bus was operated by Ricky Eugene Cherry, 70, a Dayton ISD driver, who allegedly hit Brantley and then continued driving without stopping to help.

BELIEVE : This is horrid! Prayers for the boy, his family, and friends. I have to wonder why the bus driver did not stop. I wonder if he could not feel he had run over something being in such a large vehicle or maybe he could not hear it. I wonder if he has been arrested. Does anyone know?

Devastating Tragedy. Sending Prayers to his Parents, Family, & Friends. Also, to the driver as that would be a huge burden on their soul.🙏

This is so very sad; in the rural area they live in. There are no sidewalks so the kids will typically walk down a rural road that is paved, but It has a culvert on either side. A dangerous place to walk. My heart goes out to his family

So sad!. It showed a picture of the area on the news-- no sidewalk, lots of tall grass. What a tragedy.

I am 71. The last thing I would want to do is drive a huge vehicle, much less a school bus. I know my limitations.
