Leo Ortiz, David Ortiz’s father, said to @ESPNDeportes that David was shot and wounded at an amusement center in Santo Domingo.
“They called me to tell me that David is injured and that they took him to a medical center, but they did not tell me how he is or exactly where he was transferred,” Ortiz’s father, Leo, told ESPN’s Enrique Rojas.
The chief of police told reporters Ortiz is in stable condition. CDN 37 reported (h/t Chris Villani) there is a suspect in custody.
The Red Sox reportedly don’t have any information about the incident, according to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com.
The Santo Domingo native spent parts of 20 seasons in the majors, including 14 with Boston from 2003 to 2016. He helped the team win three World Series titles while earning 10 All-Star selections.
Since his retirement in 2016, Ortiz has worked as a studio analyst for Fox Sports.
