Some Woburn elementary school students experienced a scary ride home on Thursday. Parent said the usual school bus driver wasn’t at the wheel, and the person who was didn’t know where he was going.Jen McDonough’s daughter was on the school bus, which left Hurld Wyman Elementary School. Parents said they started to worry when it didn’t get to the drop-off spots on time.“She came running off the bus hysterically crying and explaining the whole thing, saying the bus driver was mean and yelling at them and swearing and basically the kids were saying ‘that’s my stop! that’s my stop!’ and he wouldn’t let them off,” McDonough said.Families said they couldn’t track the school bus’s location.“I did notice it was a new bus driver yesterday on the way home, and they hadn’t logged onto the bus app,” said another mom Sarah Flaherty.Cleudy Vielot said his wife was concerned when her daughter didn’t arrive home.“Yeah, yeah she was nervous. She was at work. She was nervous,” Vielot said.One p...Claudine Gay inaugurated as Harvard’s first Black president

Joe Biden should do as Giorgia Meloni does.And that is to go to the border.Meloni is the prime minister of Italy who last week went to the tiny Italian island of Lampedusa, the Eagle Pass of the Mediterranean, where desperate migrants from Africa have overrun the island.Joe Biden has not only avoided visiting the Mexican border to witness firsthand the illegal immigrant invasion that is taking place but refuses to even talk about it.Biden did make a controlled, three-hour stopover in El Paso in January en route to Mexico City, but it was so programmed that he did not see any of the immigrants, let alone those sleeping in the streets. He was kept away from reporters, and he did not take any questions, of course. He never does.Within three days prior to Meloni’s visit to Lampedusa, some 8,500 migrants from Tunisia, seeking to get to mainland Europe, landed on the shores of the once quaint island of 6,000 inhabitants.The new invasion came just as Merloni, in her speech to the United Na...Judge allows Mission Hill bullying, sexual abuse case to move forward over motion to dismiss

A U.S. District Judge won’t dismiss a case alleging BPS and staff liability for bullying and sexual abuse at the now-shuttered Mission Hill K-8 Pilot School in a mixed decision.The lawsuit was filed in federal court on behalf of two students against BPS, former Mission Hill Principal Ayla Gavins and two other former educators at the school in May 2022.It alleges the defendants were liable under Title IX, Americans with Disabilities Act and constitutional requirements for many outlined incidents of bullying, sexual abuse and other misconduct targeting the children.The progressive pilot school in Jamaica Plain was shuttered in 2022 after reports of rampant mismanaged bullying, sexual misconduct, neglected disability requirements and other failures, evidenced by a commissioned investigation by the Hinkley Allen law firm.This most recent lawsuit follows a similar lawsuit filed by five families in 2021 before the school was closed, which the district settled for $650,000.The distri...Patriots extra points: Bill Belichick on ‘love’ for Terry Francona

The New England Revolution have shown up for their fanbase in a positive way over 14 games at Gillette Stadium this season.The Revolution will put their home unbeaten streak (10-0-4) on the line when they host Charlotte FC (7-10-12) in a must-win game on Saturday night (7:30) at the Razor. The Revolution are the only team in MLS that is unbeaten at home.“It’s where we have gotten most of our wins so that is what we’re looking to do against Charlotte,” said midfielder Matt Polster. “We’ve tried to win on the road and we haven’t, so now we need to get all our games at home and win those.“I think all those (final five games) are playoff teams. So, if you can kind of string some wins together at home and away, I think it will give us confidence going into the playoffs.”The Revolution clinched a berth in the MLS Cup playoffs for the fourth time in five years with last Saturday’s 2-2 draw against the Chicago Fire at Soldier Field.But the Revolution (13-6-10) have fallen from second place ...Bruins notebook: Anthony Richard gets top line duty against Flyers

Anthony Richard may still be a dark horse candidate to make the Bruins’ roster, but the jump he showed in the first preseason game last Sunday in part earned him a plum assignment for Friday’s exhibition against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Garden.The 26-year-old Richard, who signed with the B’s as a free agent in the summer after a breakout 30-goal season with Montreal’s AHL affiliate in Laval, was penciled in on a line with David Pastrnak and Pavel Zacha.Richard’s eyes lit up when he was asked about playing with those kind of impact players.“It makes the game much easier for me as a guy who works hard and goes to gritty areas to find the puck for them, so I would say it’s easier for me to play with them,” said Richard, a fourth-round pick for Nashville in 2015. “They’re finding their linemates. Just put your stick on the ice. Sometimes it’s coming when you don’t expect it.”While Richard would still have to climb over a lot of...Last living suspect in 1996 drive-by shooting of Tupac Shakur indicted on murder charge

By RIO YAMAT and KEN RITTER (Associated Press)LAS VEGAS (AP) — A man who prosecutors say orchestrated the 1996 drive-by shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur was arrested and charged with murder Friday in a long-awaited breakthrough in one of hip-hop’s most enduring mysteries.Duane “Keffe D” Davis, 60, has long been known to investigators as one of four suspects identified early in the investigation. He isn’t the accused gunman but was described as the “shot caller” by authorities Friday at a news conference and in court. Davis himself admitted in interviews and in his 2019 tell-all memoir, “Compton Street Legend,” that he provided the gun used in the drive-by shooting.Police homicide Lt. Jason Johansson said Davis’ own public comments revived the investigation by providing police with “admissible evidence.”Davis was arrested early Friday while on a walk near his home on the outskirts of Las Vegas, hours befo...Latest news
