Police in Yonkers, New York reported that Oakland Athletics’ 2014 draft pick Mike Nolan was hospitalized in critical condition on Friday, following a drive-by shooting that left him seriously injured.
Nolan was shot in the head and torso while standing near his car in the parking lot of a Burger King restaurant in Yonkers, according to the story reported by multiple sources, including Sports Illustrated.
Several shots were fired into a group of people, including Nolan, although it is unclear who the exact target was. Police believe the shooting is related to an earlier dispute over a drag race that had occurred the previous night, and Nolan was an innocent bystander.
