A Louisiana, Kentucky, parent caught on video cursing and threatening a bus full of elementary students has issued a public apology and revealed the reason for the verbal outburst.
Delvantae King said his 9-year-old daughter, a student at Carter Traditional Elementary, has been bullied by another student for months, and his complaints about the abuse were ignored.
King said he let his emotions get to him after his daughter was jumped and came home with a lump on her head last Thursday.

“They’re down-tearing my character, making me seem like a monster that I’m not. I’m just a father that was worried about my child,” King told WAVE News Tuesday.
Cell phone video of the profane-laced confrontation made national headlines and rounds on social media. King was so enraged that another man had to hold him back. The children on the bus cried and screamed in the background. At one point in the video, a young girl went back and forth with the parent.
“Ima say this one time, B———h, you touch my daughter again, you gon’ have to get get your momma, your daddy, your uncle or whoever. And that go to whoever is on here,” King said on the bus on Friday, Aug. 26.
A girl who appears to be King’s daughter also had to be held back as she started to climb over seats to get to the back of the bus where the other girl in the confrontation was standing.
“She touched her! She touched her! She touched her,” another girl seated on the bus yelled.
“That go for every little motherf———er on here. I don’t give a f———k. You shouldn’t have touched her yesterday!” King yelled.
“I didn’t touch her,” the girl, who King appeared to address, yelled back.
The man accompanying King told the children to sit down.
“I’ma flip this entire bus with everybody on it, and I mean that. I mean that,” King yelled. “That go for everybody on here. Touch my daughter again, and I’ma flip this whole bus.”
