Justiça · Wichita soccer crashWichita soccer field truck crash: Complex reopens after two deathsEscrito 20 de outubro de 2026 às 01:19 UTCVerTranscrição0:07Wichita has reopened the sports complex where a pickup killed a child and a man.0:12Ten people suffered traumatic injuries, including five children, and the city is0:16promising temporary barriers.0:17Earlier on October 19th, we reported the emergency response and two deaths as police0:22investigated.0:23What protections will families return to while investigators work out why the pickup0:26entered the field?0:27Stryker's Sports Complex reopened at 3 p.m.0:30Monday, two days after the crash.0:32The city had canceled events until further notice.0:35That closure has ended, though reopening doesn't mean every scheduled program has0:39resumed.0:39Six-year-old Cole Adrian and 35-year-old Nicholas Schaefer died at the scene, both0:44lived in McPherson, and they weren't related.0:46The crash happened at the sports complex in northeast Wichita, near North Greenwich0:50Road and East 29th Street.0:52The pickup entered the field during a youth soccer game on Saturday, October 17th.0:57The October 18 date is incorrect.0:59October 18th was Sunday.1:00Public Works and Utilities was to begin installing temporary barriers Monday at key1:05locations around the complex.1:06Wichita Police are conducting an initial security assessment with that department,1:10Parks and Recreation, and Striker Management.1:13The barriers are intended to stay until the city can put permanent solutions in1:16place.1:17The city hasn't announced that installation is finished.1:20It also hasn't released the security assessment's findings or set a deadline for1:23permanent changes.1:24Families are returning while that safety work is still taking shape.1:27The city also promised a police presence at the facility the following weekend, with1:31local mental health professionals available to help families.1:34Before the crash, the Chevrolet pickup had been parked at the complex.1:38It then moved onto a field and struck people.1:40Police took the 34-year-old Garden City woman into custody, then released her1:45without charges pending toxicology testing and a mechanical examination.1:49Investigators haven't released the results or determined whether the truck's1:53movement was accidental or intentional.1:55Two of her children were inside the pickup.1:57Another was playing soccer on a different field.2:00Investigators interviewed the driver and more than 30 witnesses, including the two2:04children riding with her.2:06Police consulted the Sedgwick County District Attorney's Office before releasing her2:10and sought public photographs and video.2:12Ten people suffered traumatic injuries and 11 went to hospitals.2:16The extra patient was a 61-year-old woman with non-traumatic medical complications.2:20Some counts still call all 11 injured.2:23The two people who died at the scene are counted separately.2:26The injured included five children and five adults, ranging from five to sixty-eight2:30years old.2:31They were taken to Ascension via Christie and Wesley Medical Center.2:34Police described injuries as not life-threatening, while other descriptions included2:39serious and non-critical.2:41Those terms don't mean minor injuries.2:43No new individual recovery updates have been announced.2:46Responders declared a level 3 mass casualty emergency.2:49One early call counted at least 11 patients, including two in serious medical2:53emergencies.2:54Another counted nine while people were still being assessed.2:57Those changing dispatch counts reflected triage as the response unfolded.3:01The final death toll is 2.3:02A five-year-old with injuries across several body systems scored 15 on the Glasgow3:07Coma Scale, fully responsive at that assessment.3:10That doesn't predict recovery.3:12Later, a responder said, there's another victim in the middle of the field.3:16The call's timing doesn't tell us when that person was found or add another3:19casualty.3:20McPherson Mayor Jim Loving pledged continuing support to the bereaved families and3:25wished the injured a recovery.3:26He also thanked bystanders who stepped in before the first ambulance arrived, along3:31with the first responders in Wichita and McPherson.3:33Kansas's High School Activities Association suspended championship play after the3:37crash.3:38The third place and championship flag football games still need confirmed3:42arrangements despite the complex reopening.3:44Wednesday, October 21, at Shawnee Mission South is a possible option for the two3:49postponed games.3:50That plan is tentative.3:52A confirmed replacement date, kickoff time, and venue haven't been announced.3:56The Sedgwick County District Attorney's Office will conduct an initial review of the4:00crash.4:01No date has been announced for a charging decision.Ler o artigoCronologia da
