Ontario County District Attorney Michael Tantillo said he made the decision to present the case to a grand jury after reviewing evidence collected by county sheriff's investigators.
Tantillo could have determined there was not enough evidence to support charges and dropped the case, but instead announced his decision more than a month after Stewart's car struck and killed Kevin Ward Jr. at a dirt track on August 9th.
In a statement, Stewart said he respects the time and effort authorities have spent "investigating this tragic accident"
"I look forward to this process being completed, and I will continue to provide my full cooperation," he said.
