Horry County Schools secured a settlement earlier in a lawsuit filed by the guardians of an eight‑year‑old girl.

The child’s arm was trapped in a school bus door in the past.

The lawsuit claimed that the driver failed to follow required safety rules.

Both parties consented to the deal, but the terms were not disclosed.

The accident happened on a county school bus in the area.

The family lodged the case following the incident.

No further details were made public.
