David Ortiz shot in The Dominican

Dude just walked up and shot him, apparently. Good thing he had no idea what he was doing.

That’s just an out and out murder attempt. No sign of an attempted robbery there. Good thing this assh0le didn’t know how to shoot. Get well soon, Papi!
 
The shooting does not look random, rather seems intentional.. Ortiz seems targeted.

Not sure what it all means; Robbery?? Payback??

Wish him well..
 
Why is Ortiz walking around in a crazy country like DR without security protection?
 
Odds are that the person who shot him has an under-treated mental health issue.

Ortiz is devoted to improving social conditions in his home country. Given his character, I imagine this will only strengthen his resolve.

Get well, Big Papi!
 
Sounds like it was a lot worse than they are are making it out to be. Reports are saying removed some of his intestine, part of his colon and his gall bladder.

Yes he’s alive and seems well, but wow, a 6 hour surgery isn’t a walk in the park either. So glad he’s ok.
 
Gallbladder removed and parts of intestines. If that was his only organ damage then he is extremely lucky.

I had my gallbladder removed the night before SB49. The gallbladder offering to the sports God shows papi is equally committed to the Bruins.

In all seriousness though your gallbladder is not vestigial but very little side effects to living without it. Removing it is one of the more common procedures in this country.

I can't speak to intestines and bullet wounds but does sound like positive news.

Indeed.. watching that video, the shooter had the head shot available, thankfully he chose differently and the big man pulled through
 
I was actually wondering why a lesbian was hugging Ortiz from behind before I read the description.
My thought was damn his mom is fugly, at least she birthed a foookin legend.

No kidding. Thank goodness the shooter is a poor marksman.
 
Man this seems like it was a hit more than a robbery attempt.
 
Biggest challenge when removing intestine is infection, both from the surgery itself and then from complications.

I've no idea of the quality of care he got, or that's available in the DR. He'll need some luck from this point forward, regardless. Not out of the woods by any means.

Damn.
 
Why is he in the DR anyway? I know it is his home but if I was as rich as him I'd stay in America.

I do hope he's okay.

If I was him I would probably live in Switzerland, Sweden, Norway or so. Understandable because it's his home but the DR is damn dangerous.
 
Best wishes for a speedy recovery for Ortiz.

I'm curious about the motive of the shooter. Is this some guy with a serious grudge or just a nut job?

here is a picture of the POS, he took a real beating from the Dominicans. Note possible "Latin Kings" tat on left shoulder.
