CAROLINE COUNTY, Va. (WTVR) – The man who was driving the bus that crashed on Interstate 95 in Caroline County killing four people will serve six years in prison.

When handing down the sentence, the judge told former Sky Express Inc. bus driver Kin Yiu Cheung he had wiped from the planet “four good souls.”

Cheung was driving a bus from North Carolina to New York City in May 2011, when he ran off the road.

Last month all charges were dropped against the Sky Express Inc. bus dispatcher accused of forcing Cheung to continue on his route despite complaining of fatigue.

This is a developing story.
