Children in serious condition after being hit at Forsyth County bus stop

A 19-year-old is facing charges.

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — A 9-year-old girl is in critical condition after she, her 6-year-old sister and their father were all hit by a car while waiting for the bus Friday morning. The others are in stable condition after they were hit in their driveway off Buford Highway in the Bonnie Brea Road area.

A Forsyth County Schools spokesperson said it happened when the bus was making a stop at around 7 a.m. As the bus activated its lights and stop sign, 19-year-old Christopher Ray Frachiseur allegedly drove his Toyota Camry around the bus and over a curb - hitting them.

Frachiseur is being charged with three counts of serious injury by vehicle, driving under the influence of drugs, reckless driving, failure to stop for a school bus loading or unloading, too fast for conditions and due care while operating a motor vehicle. He is being held in the Forsyth County Jail without bond, the Forsyth County Sheriff's Officer said.
