An Edmonton family is demanding answers after a 10-year-old boy with disabilities was dropped off from school with two broken arms and injuries to his head and face.
The Abbas family said something was clearly wrong when Youssef arrived home on a Stock Transportation school bus on Feb. 24.
"He had a bump on his head that’s probably comparable to the size of an apple and he was just screaming and then he’d stop crying and he was just not there," Layal Abbas, the boy’s sister, said.
"They said he had fallen asleep and just bumped his head," she said of a call the family received from the bus company before it arrived.
An ambulance was called by the family shortly after Youssef got home because he, who is non-verbal, started seizing.
The boy was left with head and facial injuries, scrapes, bruises and two broken arms.
Stollery Children's Hospital officials started their own investigation, Youssef's father said.
