Just recently, Ricky Pearsall was shot during an attempted robbery incident and tried to walk to an ambulance a couple of moments after. Much like Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James, fans have taken to social media to react to the news revolving around the San Francisco 49ers wide receiver.

Pearsall was shot in the chest during an attempted robbery in Union Square, San Francisco, on Saturday afternoon. The incident occurred when police found two individuals with injuries at the scene. The 49ers wide receiver was identified as the victim, and a 17-year-old suspect has been taken into custody with charges pending.

According to the 49ers, Pearsall is currently in serious but stable condition. Eyewitness accounts and social media footage show him being assisted by paramedics as he was transported to the hospital, where he received treatment for his injuries. Initial investigations indicated that during the attempted robbery, a physical confrontation ensued between Pearsall and the suspect, resulting in both sustaining injuries.
