A soldier based at U.S. Army Garrison Fort Leavenworth thwarted a potential mass shooting by striking and injuring a suspect with his vehicle, authorities said.

Law enforcement in Leavenworth, Kansas, responded to Centennial Bridge, which spans the Missouri River and connects Kansas and Missouri, based on reports of shots fired about 11 a.m., police said.

"He intentionally intervened using his vehicle to strike and injure the suspect who was actively shooting," Kitchens said."Very likely countless lives were saved by the person that intervened and helped."
