According to Fox News, investigators said a mother drove onto an active field at the Stryker Sports Complex while children and families were present. Copenhaver, a former Florida sheriff's detective who previously worked with an FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force, stated that law enforcement needed to do a better job explaining why charges have not been brought.

Police arrested the 34 year old female driver at the scene after the incident occurred around 3:25 p.m. local time, with two juveniles inside her vehicle. [4][5]
