Driver in deadly Kansas soccer field crash released while investigation continues

A woman, 34, who drove a pickup truck onto a soccer field in Wichita, Kansas, during a youth game, killing two people and injuring 10 others, has been released without charges as the investigation continues, police said on Sunday. The Chevrolet pickup, parked in a parking space near the fields, drove onto one of the fields, striking multiple children and adults.

The two victims, Cole Adrian, 6, and Nicholas Schafer, 35, were not related. Ten others, aged between 5 and 68, were hospitalized with non-serious injuries. Police have interviewed over 30 witnesses and are awaiting results of toxicology tests and a mechanical examination of the vehicle.
