A bus driver was arrested in Connecticut over the weekend after being accused of deliberately locking a passenger inside of one of the vehicle's luggage compartments and driving off, according to police.
Officers tracked the call and pulled the bus over on Interstate 84 in Union, Connecticut, about 30 miles northeast of Hartford. The woman said one of the bus drivers, identified as 49-year-old Wendy Alberty, locked her inside while she was trying to retrieve something from her bag, according to a police statement.
Police did not reveal exactly how long the woman may have been inside, but one witness said she must've been down there for at least 45 minutes based on when the bus had last stopped. "She didn't have access to air and ventilation for 45 minutes. I think that would put someone over the edge," Van Allen told ABC News."I cannot stress enough how calm she was and she did not seem angry ... she even didn't look relieved. She just looked dead in the eyes."
