Mother seen being detained by police after plowing her truck into Kansas soccer game in incident that killed man and child

A truck driven by an unidentified 34-year-old woman struck a youth soccer game at Wichita’s Stryker Sports Complex on Saturday afternoon, killing six-year-old Cole Adrian and 35-year-old Nicholas Schafer. Nearly a dozen others were injured, and witnesses described panic as people rushed to help.

Police detained the driver at the scene, but released her on Sunday without charges while awaiting toxicology results and a mechanical examination of the truck. The crash happened shortly before 3.30pm; witnesses said the vehicle crossed the field and struck people near the sidelines. Investigators are still working to establish what led to the crash.
