Las Vegas, NV — A player from the Las Vegas Raiders football team has been hospitalized after being shot in what police are describing as a possible altercation. According to authorities, the incident occurred late last night in the central part of the city.
The player, whose identity has not yet been released, was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Police say the shooting appears to have stemmed from a confrontation, though the details surrounding the altercation remain unclear. Investigators are currently reviewing surveillance footage and speaking with witesses to gather more information.
“We are aware of the situation and are in contact with the authorities. The player is receiving medical care, and we will continue to support him throughout this process,” a spokesperson for the Raiders said in a statement.
As of now, no arrests have been made, and police are asking anyone with information to come forward. The team has also urged fans and the public to respect the privacy of the individual involved as they focus on recovery.
