A bus driver with a heart of compassion story

Tweet

One thing I have noticed about bus drivers that when they do a heroic deed of saving the life of a young stranger, it does not get reported in the news market where the incident happened until much later in the year for some strange reason that I cannot figure out compared to a tragic event. Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) bus driver Kelvin White who is a father himself showed compassion for a young girl who must have been 2 to 3 years of age walking by herself with a stroller on the streets of Hampton Virginia on July 17. Kelvin was shocked to see the girl walking in the street by herself without any adult supervision when he stopped the bus, got off of the bus, used his vest to keep traffic away from the girl when he picked her up and took her inside of his bus after he tried with the help of another man to ask door to door if the girl was missing from their home. When on one answered his and the other man's question if the missing girl was theirs, he called the local police to come to his bus and try to reunite the girl with her mom. The mom did answer the call from the police to reunite with her daughter. The good news of this story is that Kelvin was awarded by his employer a pair of Beats headphones recently. Bus drivers can be compassionate persons as well.
