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

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

The lawsuit alleged that the driver did not observe required safety rules.

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

The accident took place on a county school bus locally.

The family initiated the case following the incident.

No further details were made public.
