BOWLING GREEN Two Otsego students were taken off their school bus and charged with delinquency in connection with disorderly conduct Monday after fighting on their moving bus.

The two boys, ages 13 and 14, reportedly got into a loud confrontation in the aisle about 2:40 p.m. Linda Ruple, the bus driver, told deputies she looked to see what was going on, then applied the bus brakes, which caused the bus to slide off the road into a ditch.

No one was injured, and there was no damage to the bus, deputies said. The two boys were taken to the Wood County Juvenile Detention Center.
