According to the report from WTKR-TV, 18-year-old Joshua P. Dalton faces two counts of brandishing a firearm after two students reported to their school bus driver that a man in a blue pickup truck behind the bus pointed a gun at them.

The bus driver took the students back to Pembroke Elementary and notified school authorities and police. Police say there was a dispute between Dalton and several students at the bus stop about a Confederate flag on Dalton’s truck.
