An 11-year-old boy was been charged with three counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child after the victim's mother learned of disturbing surveillance video from an Aldine ISD school bus.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- It's been 10 months since the mother of a 6-year-old came forward with horrific claims of sexual assault that allegedly occurred on an Aldine ISD school bus. ... Now, that mother plans to take legal action to demand accountability. ... Latoya "Stormie" Monroe says she is filing a lawsuit against Aldine ISD, claiming the district failed to protect her child.

Monroe says her 6-year-old may have been repeatedly raped for months as he rode the bus to school before surveillance footage captured one of the alleged attacks. ... The mother said she didn't know about any sort of incident until her son's backpack went missing. She told ABC13 she called school transportation officials to ask them to review the security footage onboard the bus to see if they could tell what happened to the backpack. ... That's when Monroe said she got a call from the school because the assaults were captured on the video.

Community Activist Quanell X said the child complained of stomach pains, and that's when doctors allegedly discovered internal injuries. Quanell also said that the bus driver thought the previous noise from the back of the bus was of kids fighting.

The other student involved, an 11-year-old, has since been charged with three felony counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child. His identity was withheld due to his age. ... At the time, the school district launched an investigation and notified Child Protective Services, putting out a statement that student safety is top priority.
