The family of deceased sprint car racer Kevin Ward, Jr., declared the case of their son's death 'is not at rest' and claimed that Tony Stewart 'intentionally tried to intimidate Kevin.' A grand jury decided not to indict the three-time NASCAR champion Wednesday, who struck and killed Ward in a horrifying crash that was caught on film. At an afternoon press conference announcing the decision, Ontario County District Attorney Michael Tantillo said there was 'no aberrational driving' on the part of Stewart. Tantillo also made the startling revelation that Ward was under the influence of marijuana the night he was hit and that there was enough of the drug in his system 'to impair judgement'.
