Florida woman fires shots at school bus in Brevard County: police

A Central Florida woman was arrested for firing shots at a school bus in Brevard County Wednesday afternoon, according to deputies.

Ashley Wyns, 32, of Titusville, is facing five felony charges including aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and child abuse, jail records show. 

Shortly before 5 p.m., Titusville police officers responded to the intersection of Sisson Road and Little League Lane after receiving reports of shots fired from a parked vehicle. 

Wyn allegedly approached the school bus and had a brief verbal interaction with the driver, police said. She went back to her car and fired a gunshot in the direction of the school bus that was carrying a dozen children.  

According to police reports, Wyns was reportedly upset that her child got into an argument on the bus.

She left the scene immediately after the incident but was stopped by police around 9:30 p.m. when she was spotted driving in the same area where the shooting happened. She was booked in the Brevard County Jail and is being held on a $145,000 bond. 

No one was hurt in the shooting. 

The incident remains under investigation.
