Washington Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson Jr. sustained multiple gunshot wounds in his lower body during an attempted robbery in Washington, D.C. He remained hospitalized Sunday while in stable condition, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed to USA TODAY Sports.
The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced details of the incident, said that Robinson’s injuries are considered to be non-life threatening. Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson Dustin Sternbeck said officers responded shortly before 6 p.m. to a reported shooting in the 1000 block of H Street Northeast, a well-trafficked area filled with restaurants and bars.
Sternbeck said the lone victim in the shooting sustained two gunshot wounds to their lower extremities and was taken to an area hospital. The suspects fled the scene before police arrived, but officers did find a firearm nearby, Sternbeck added. They believe the victim was targeted in an attempted armed robbery.
