LOS ANGELES (AFP) – Former Portland Trail Blazers star Brandon Roy is recovering after being injured in a shooting in Los Angeles, reports said Wednesday.
KING-TV in Seattle said Roy was treated for wounds following the shooting before returning to Washington state, where he works as a high school basketball coach.
USA Today reported that the 32-year-old was injured as he shielded children from gunfire during the incident, which occurred outside his grandmother’s house.
“Like many others, we’re just learning of the injury suffered by former Trail Blazers player Brandon Roy in a shooting over the weekend in California,’’ the Blazers said in a statement.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with Brandon and his family during this time.’’
Roy played five seasons in Portland before retiring in 2011 because of knee problems.
Thanks for the suggestions about credit repair on this excellent blog. What I would offer as advice to people is always to give up the actual mentality that they buy today and pay later. As a society many of us tend to try this for many issues. This includes trips, furniture, and also items we wish. However, it is advisable to separate a person’s wants from the needs. While you are working to improve your credit score actually you need some sacrifices. For example you possibly can shop online to save cash or you can turn to second hand shops instead of expensive department stores for clothing.
