FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - Fort Worth Police have released the 911 audio call that came in after a woman plowed through a soccer field fence and hit three kids.

Frantic parents are head telling the 911 operator "A car just ran over a kid" and "She's trying to run off."

Fort Worth Police arrested the driver after she rammed into one car, fled the scene and finally wrecked at Mary Louise Phillips Elementary School; injuring the children.

Witnesses who watched the scene unfold reported seeing the driver attempt to run from the scene.

"We just let her know they weren't going to run and get away," said Jessica Anthony.

Anthony and Eric Thomas were in the Fort Worth Neighborhood when they watched the unimaginable unfold.

"It's pretty scary when you see him lying down with tire tracks on his face," said Thomas of one child who was run over. Thomas said he physically jumped in front of the suspect while Anthony did the talking. "It just broke my heart. I couldn't even imagine. And his mom wasn't even there," said Anthony.

As a mother of a little girl, Anthony said she jumped in because it is what she would hope other parents would do if it were her child. "I just can't even imagine. It could have been my child. I just feel for the family," said Anthony.

"There's always tons of kids playing over here. My kids. Everybody on this block. It could have been so much worse," said Anthony.

Police said two of the three kids who were hit were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police haven't released the driver's name.
