BUTLER CITY, Pa. (KDKA) — A man got on a school bus on Thursday in Butler City and started swearing at students and making threats, officials say.

The driver, with the Butler Area School District, called the police around 7 a.m. near Lincoln and Center avenues.

The driver had to ask the man several times to get off the bus before he finally exited. Surveillance video helped police identify the man, who they now believe got on the bus to break up a fight among students.

Investigators later identified him as 44-year-old Clifford Anderson. He was arrested and taken to the Butler County Jail on charges of terroristic threats, harassment and unauthorized school bus entry.  

Police say they'll continue to monitor bus traffic in the mornings and evenings.
