A sampling of crime and public safety news in and around Dallas:
• A 15-year-old Richardson schools student who insisted that her bus driver stop and let her off somehow made it through the bus doors while the vehicle was moving and was crushed beneath the tires.
• Eddie Ray Williams plead guilty in the murder of four people during a botched robbery in 2004: Rosa Barbosa, Mark Barbosa, Austin York and Matthew Self. He received a relatively light sentence of three concurrent 20-year terms for the slayings that shocked quiet McKinney because prosecutors say he didn’t plan the crimes and testified against another defendant.
• Willy freed: Marcia Norris had a joyful reunion with her chihuahua — Willy, who had been stolen from her home and who was a gift from her late husband.
