San Francisco’s Ricky Pearsall Shot In Attempted Robbery

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Officials say a juvenile suspect is in custody after allegedly shooting San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall in the chest during an attempted robbery in San Francisco. Police Chief Bill Scott says Pearsall, 23, is in stable condition after he and the suspect were transported to a hospital Saturday. Scott says Pearsall was walking alone shortly after 3:30 p.m. when the suspect attempted to rob him and they both were shot during a struggle. Police have identified the suspect as a 17-year-old male resident of Tracy, California. The 49ers issued a statement saying Pearsall was hit by a bullet in the chest. “He’s good,” 49ers teammate Deebo Samuel posted on X. Pearsall was drafted by the team in April from the University of Florida.
