A man charged with abusing a 12-year-old over an incident that happened on a Jefferson County Public School bus has been arraigned.
A not guilty plea was entered for 41 year-old Sherman Price, of Louisville, on charges of assault, child abuse and strangulation.
On December 14, Price allegedly picked up the boy by the neck, strangled him and threw the child prior to hitting him with his fist.
Louisville Metro police said the attack was allegedly in reponse to an earlier incident on a school bus which happened between Price’s daughter and the boy.
A $5,000 surety bond was for set for Price with the provision that he be placed into the home incarceration program if it is posted. Price was ordered to have no contact with any Jefferson County Public School facility or bus.
Price will be back in court on December 27.
