(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 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.

A lot of families and children were on the field when it happened, witnesses told CNN affiliate KWCH.

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 presence to the scene, including dozens of local and county police vehicles, KWCH reported.

Officials are working to notify family members of the victims, Moses said, adding police are not yet releasing their ages. It’s unclear what soccer clubs were on the field, he said.

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.
