PAGE 6A — THE MADISON COUNTY (GA) JOURNAL. THURSDAY. JANUARY 22, 2009 On the Record School bus fight results in arrest, wreck on Sandy Springs Road A fight between several teens on a school bus last week resulted in the arrest of at least one of them, while the bus ran off the road as the bus driver attempted to deal with the altercation. Kenyatta Dequan Hillsman, 17, of 366 Fox Trail Road, Athens, was charged with bat tery, disorderly conduct and disrupting public school pen alty. The other teens involved in the altercation were juveniles. According to the incident report, a teen was struck on the back of the head by another teen while the bus was travel ing on Sandy Springs Road. Hillsman reportedly came from the back of the bus and struck the first teen in the face. Hillsman and the second teen reportedly continued to strike the first teen, keeping him trapped in his seat. The bus driver was forced to stop the bus to deal with the situa tion, and mistakenly failed to put the brake on all the way causing the bus to leave the road and strike a power pole guide wire before coming to a stop.

The Atlanta Journal Constitution reported this past week that Bruce Allen Hughes, who allegedly used a signature purple velvet Crown Royal bag to carry away his stolen cash, was scheduled to enter a guilty plea on federal charges last Thursday. However, Hughes changed his mind and pled not guilty. "Mr. Hughes has changed his mind and wants a jury trial," his federal defender, Colin Garrett, told U.S. District Court Judge Richard Story Hughes was arrested in Madison County after the sher iff’s department received a tip that he was living at a resi dence on Beverly Lane in southern Madison County. Hughes was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of conspiracy to commit Hobbs Act Robbery, three counts of armed bank robbery and four counts of use and pos session of a firearm during the commission of a violent felony. real estate auctions Selling January 28st - 30th Nominal Opening Bid: $100,000 BRASELTON, GA • 5789 Chickasaw Ln 3BR 3.5BA Brick ranch style home built in 2006.
