Ward exited his sprint car and walked in the direction of Stewart’s car when he was struck and killed. The lawsuit filed by Ward’s family claimed Stewart caused the fatal accident when he maneuvered toward Ward while the race was under caution. 'Our son was truly the light of our lives and we miss him terribly every day,' the Ward family said in statement when the lawsuit was originally filed. 'Our hope is that this lawsuit will hold Tony Stewart responsible for killing our son and show him there are real consequences when someone recklessly takes another person’s life.' The lawsuit sought unspecified punitive damages.
