San Francisco 49ers player Ricky Pearsall shot in chest during attempted robbery, 17-year-old suspect in custody, police say


San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was shot in the chest in an attempted robbery in San Francisco on Saturday afternoon, the team said in a statement.

Pearsall “is in serious but stable condition,” the 49ers confirmed.

A 17-year-old boy attempted to rob Pearsall at gunpoint as he was walking alone at around 3:30 p.m. PT, when an altercation broke out between the two, resulting in both of them suffering injuries, according to the San Francisco Police Department.

“Gunfire from the suspect’s gun struck both Mr. Pearsall and the subject,” San Francisco Police Chief William Scott said in a Saturday news conference, adding multiple shots were fired.

Not worth your life though I understand the sentiment of wanting to subdue that little shit. Hopefully that worthless little shit dies of his injuries and Pearsall fully recovers.
