A New Jersey man has been arrested after he threw a rock from a highway overpass, striking a school bus and hitting an 8-year-old girl, causing her to suffer serious injuries, including a fractured skull.
Hernando Garciamorales was charged with aggravated assault, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, endangering the welfare of a child, criminal mischief, resisting arrest by flight and hindering, according to a Facebook post shared by New Jersey State Police on Friday, January 9.
According to police, a school bus carrying children northbound on the New Jersey Turnpike in Teaneck Township, New Jersey, was hit by a rock the size of a baseball on Wednesday, January 7.
An 8-year-old passenger was hit in the head after the rock broke through a glass window. Following the incident, she was required to undergo surgery to repair the skull fracture.

Garciamorales, 40, was linked to the crime when police found him at a “self-made campsite” in Bergen County, close to where the alleged incident took place. He was then arrested, and police soon learned that Garciamorales was linked to “multiple rock-throwing incidents” that have taken place all around the county.
The suspect, who resides in Palisades Park, has been involved in past crimes described in eight affidavits, according to the New Jersey Herald. Six of the eight incidents involved rock throwing, while he was also accused of invading the privacy of Bogota, New Jersey, residents in two other affidavits.
