No Kids Were Hurt
Amazingly, none of the children were hit by Sharrow because of the heroic deed of Parkhurst. According to one of the witnesses, Justin Clifton, “After the car got off the field, [the driver] came to the gate…” But in his attempt to close the gate against the upcoming vehicle, he would end up getting hit by Sharrow.
Parkhurst Was Watching His Grandson
Sadly for Parkhurst, he just happened to be watching his grandson playing baseball when the crash occurred. And while he had bravely made sure that the kids were saved and not a single one of them was hurt, wistfully for him, he wasn’t as lucky.
