Andrew Sipowicz could not believe his eyes as he approached his red Ford Mustang Monday night.
The 21-year-old Buffalo, New York native saw that the front end of his car was badly damaged.
Sipowicz is a senior attending classes at Canisius College. He admits to being in a total panic upon first seeing the damage done to his car. He says it took a moment to realize someone had left a note on his car.
The note was handwritten and included an artistic representation of what happened to Andrew's mustang. A bus struck his car and continued along its way. The picture on the note was complete with the face of the screaming children onboard the bus.

The sixth-grader that left the note even left bullet points to chronicle the accident. Andrew says the note provided him with a great deal of relief.
Andrew smiles when recounting some of the words in the note. The sixth grader explained a public school bus driver for the city of Buffalo was responsible for the large dent in the car.
Andrew posted the note on his Twitter account and thanked the anonymous sixth grader. He explained to his Twitter followers that his favorite part of the drawing was the faces of the children on the bus. The children seemed to be the focus of the Twitter followers also.
One follower of Andrew' Twitter feed compared the sixth-grader to Picasso. Another joked that maybe there was more to the story than the sixth-grader explained. A third commenter said he was sure he could predict the sixth-grader's future profession.
The Buffalo Public School System referred Andrew to First Student. The company was the owner of the bus that struck Andrew's car. First Student was also the employer for the driver of the bus. The company took full responsibility for the damage to Andrew's car and admonished the bus driver responsible for the accident.
Andrew says that a teacher at the sixth-graders school recognized the handwriting on the note. Andrew is hoping to meet her soon and give her a reward.
First Student also thanked the sixth-grader for her actions.
