> Whats more alarming is he was a high school student who got arrested for a disturbance on a bus

That's a pretty vague term. We don't know what, exactly, his disturbance on a bus consisted of.

Agreed, a "disturbance" on a moving vehicle has the potential to be rather serious. If it was hitting some other kid with a spitball then an arrest would be unreasonable, but something interfering with the driver would be much more serious.
