Horry County Schools reached a settlement recently in a lawsuit filed by the family of an eight‑year‑old girl.

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

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

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

The accident occurred on a county school bus locally.

The family filed the case subsequent to the accident.

No further details were released.
