CNN —
Two people were killed and multiple others were injured when a vehicle drove onto a field during a soccer game at a sports complex in Wichita, Kansas, on Saturday, authorities said.
The driver of the vehicle is in custody and “there is no additional ongoing threat to the public from that driver,” said Aaron Moses of the Wichita Police Department.
Those killed include a child and an adult, Moses said. They have not been identified.
Two “juveniles” were inside the vehicle when it drove through Stryker Sports Complex around 3:25 p.m. local time, Moses said. The vehicle remained at the scene, he added.
An attendee told the station he was with his family when a black pickup truck jumped the curb and drove onto the field. Two witnesses also described hearing a loud noise at the time.
The incident drew a large law enforcement response to the soccer field, which is fenced off and has a concrete runway leading to a parking lot, CNN affiliate KWCH reported.
It’s not yet clear how the vehicle breached the gate or how fast it was driving, Moses said.
Officials are working to notify family members of the victims and are not yet releasing their ages, Moses said. It’s unclear what soccer clubs were on the field, he said.
Games have been suspended at a flag football state championship as police probe the scene at the adjacent Stryker Complex field, the Kansas State High School Activities Association said in a statement.
Police are expected to hold another news conference to provide more information Saturday evening, Moses said.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
