Football mum’s first words after ‘ploughing truck through match killing boy, 6, and parent’

A woman allegedly drove her car through a football match, killing a six-year-old boy and a 35-year-old man.

The suspect was reportedly heard shouting ‘oh my god, what have I done?’ as she was pulled from the vehicle that had injured at least ten others.

Distressing footage from the scene captures the moment the black pick-up truck strikes the ‘screaming’ crowd as onlookers watched a game at Stryker Sports Complex in Wichita, Kansas.

A woman was seen being led away in handcuffs after finally coming to a stop.

Police said the woman had two children in the back of a pick-up truck one who was due to play a match.

One parent Craig Ewert revealed he was nearly hit by the car.

He said: ‘I witnessed something I thought I would never see. I was at Stryker in Wichita today on that sideline.

‘I was watching my grandson, Braylon. I’m still shaking. The Lord was looking out for me and my family. I saw the truck barreling down the sideline running over all our fans. I jumped out of the way as it ran over my chair, missing me by inches.’

Football coach Andrew Link said his U-10s team were playing at the time.

He said: ‘The things I saw and heard were straight out of a nightmare. I am thankful that all my players and parents were physically okay, but my heart hurts for the emotions and trauma we experienced.

‘I am proud of all of our parents who sprung into action to assist with the victims of the incident.

‘I am devastated for the lives that were lost. Today will have a lasting impact on all of us in the Wichita soccer community. I hope we can all heal from this tragic event.’

Wichita Police Captain Aaron Moses said the ages of the injured people ranged from 5 to 68.

Moses said the driver, a 34-year-old, was in custody. He did not say whether authorities believe it was intentional.

‘We are still working to determine how this happened and why this happened,’ he said.
