LIBERTY TOWNSHIP — A dispute between elementary-age children at a bus stop resulted in minor injuries to one child and delinquency charges against both.

        Around 9:30 a.m. Thursday, the mother of a 6-year-old girl called the Butler County Sheriff's Office and a Liberty Township ambulance and said that her daughter had been injured in an altercation while waiting for the school bus at Lakota Point and Dutchland Boulevard.

        An 8-year-old girl is accused of pushing down the 6-year-old — but the 8-year-old's mother alleges that the younger girl started the altercation by spitting on the older girl.

        Both children have been charged with delinquency counts of assault, said sheriff's Sgt. Dave Smith. The girls are students at Woodland Elementary School.
