STEWART SKIPS RACE AFTER KILLING DRIVER
Tony Stewart opted not to race Sunday after he hit and killed sprint car driver Kevin Ward Jr. who climbed out of his car and was on the track trying to confront Stewart in a race in upstate New York Saturday night. Regan Smith will race in place of Stewart. Sheriff Philip Povero said Sunday afternoon that there are no charges at this time. However he is being investigated. A video of the incident shows Ward walking up to Stewart, the car hitting Ward, and Ward flying 50 feet. “People that witnessed it were horrified,” Povero said of the crash. “They were extremely shocked.” My thoughts and prayers go out to the Ward family.
