WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - Update: Wichita police say they are responding to a mass casualty incident involving a vehicle at Stryker Sports Complex

“There is no further ongoing threat at this time. We will provide further updates when we have additional information,” said police.

Drivers are asked to stay away from the area of 29th and Greenwich while the investigation continues.

Emergency crews are on the scene of a major incident at Stryker Sports Complex.

We’re told that multiple people have been injured. At this time, the extent of those injuries are unknown. We are working to learn the conditions of those people at this time.

A witness on the scene tells 12 News a “black pickup truck came plowing through the youth soccer fields hitting multiple people before stopping 100-200 yards down the fields. Dozens of emergency responders on scene giving CPR and rendering aid to victims.”

12 News has a crew heading to the scene to learn more.

Medical issue, domestic dispute, or something more sinister?

I read that there was not anything major happening there today. A girls flag football team or something such as that.

Intelligent proof readers for the media are now non-existent.

I saw elsewhere someone say it was a woman upset about here child’s playing time. Who knows if that is true.


Per 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 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 in the incident at Stryker Sports Complex include a child and an adult, Moses said. They have not been identified.

I think that is when the ambulance drives slowly with no lights.

It is a sorry come to pass when I find myself hoping that it involved a driver having a medical crisis, and not a deliberate targeting by a terrorist.
