According to ESPN, Tony Stewart filed a motion asking a federal judge to dismiss claims made by Kevin Ward Jr.’s parents. Ward was killed after Stewart struck him during the Empire Super Sprints Race at Canandaigua Motorsports Park back in 2014.
Toxicology reports showed Ward had marijuana in his system when he got out of his car and started to walk towards Stewart’s car. The Ward family believes Stewart tried to scare their son and accidentally hit him.
