Another 10 people were injured, ranging in age from 5 to 68, including two 5-year-olds, two 8-year-olds and a 9-year-old.
As families dealt with the aftermath, police worked to piece together how a truck had ended up on a field filled with children and spectators.

Investigators said the Chevrolet pickup “was parked in a parking space near the soccer fields before it drove onto one of the fields, striking multiple children and adults.”
Behind the wheel was a 34-year-old Wichita mother, who had one child playing soccer on another field at the complex, and two other children in the vehicle with her when it crashed, according to ABC News.
The driver has since been “released pending the results of toxicology testing and a mechanical examination of the vehicle. No charges have been filed at this time, and investigators continue working to determine the circumstances that led to the crash,” police report.
