School bus aide charged with stealing lunch money

A school bus aide has been charged with stealing lunch money and bagged lunches from school children in New Jersey.

Police in Millville say 33-year-old Rosa Rios was caught on a surveillance camera rummaging through students’ backpacks.

She is accused of stealing money and food from the three- to five-year-olds she was supervising.

Authorities first reviewed the footage because the bus driver complained that someone had stolen $400 from her. Rios is also under investigation in that theft.

The Sheppard Bus Company says Rios no longer works for the firm. Rios was charged with robbery and theft.

She is being held on $70,000 bail at the Cumberland County Jail.
