Second Man In Custody In Ortiz Shooting
(Santo Domingo) — A second man is in custody in connection with Sunday’s shooting of Red Sox legend David Ortiz in the Dominican Republic. The suspect wasn’t identified but police had been looking for the man who pulled the trigger. Authorities apprehended the man Tuesday. Another man, Eddy Feliz Garcia is accused of driving a motorcycle to a bar in Santo Domingo where his passenger allegedly shot Ortiz in the back. Garcia’s lawyer claims he was just a motorcycle taxi driver who had no idea who he was carrying. Ortiz, who is from Santo Domingo, was flown to Boston for medical treatment. He’s recovering from a second surgery and said to be in good condition in the ICU.
