I'm Matt Austin I'm Lisa Bell Orlando
police say that driver crashed into
another links bus last month killing the
driver new Six's jury asking is learning
new details about the crash and both
drivers he joins us now live in gerry
today you obtained the maintenance
records for both buses involved in that
crash yes Lisa and those records show
that both buses had some maintenance
issues before the crash happened but
today links officials told us both buses
that those issues were addressed and
both buses were fully operational on the
morning the crash happened this all
happens again we're finding out the
drive for the other driver Ronnie bill
he resigned from links yesterday after
26 years and we're finding out more
about the driver who died his name was
prosper in his arm right now as many
links buses around Orlando are
showcasing message boards reading in
remembrance of Prospero's air after he
died last month we just found out the
driver who police say hit him Ronnie
bill resigned from links yesterday
here's a copy of his resignation letter
people who knew Nazaire are sad and say
they want answers I would like to just
as brought forth you know the morning of
November 16th

got out and walked towards the back not
long after a links bus who police say
was driven by Ronnie bill ran into
Nazaire and his bus Nazaire died on
scene now we're asking if the driver
will face charges I don't know how a
person could crash into a stopped
vehicle being on the road so it's kind
of crazy today

service and fully operational the
morning of the crash though we obtained
safety records today those records show
within a month leading up to the crash
Prospero's ayers bus was out of service
for reports of smoke and oil leaking and
also for report of a bad battery
all of which links said were fixed and
addressed before the crash happened
records also show the other drivers bus
was out of service to to check tires but
they were also fixed links said prior to
the crash
and right now Orlando police said no no
charges have been found and they're
still investigating even though last
month after this crash they said those
charges were unlikely now we did reach
out to the other driver on Ronnie bill
