That is when Hernandez popped his head out of the hatch. His head reportedly struck the underside of the overpass

Franco said,

“I told them not to open the hatch, like three or four times, but kids, they don’t understand”

Franco then said he then went downstairs to the front of the bus and reported to the driver that it was too hot in the bus.

Just moments later, “I heard two guys screaming, ‘Oh my God, oh my God,” and ran back up to the second floor of the bus and saw Fernandez on the floor.
