Pearsall, who could be seen walking to an ambulance after he was shot, is in stable condition.

"This afternoon, there was an attempted robbery in Union Square involving San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall and he was shot," said Breed. "SFPD was on scene immediately and an arrest of the shooter was made."

According to the SF Fire Department, two victims were discovered near Grant and Geary streets with possible gunshot wounds.

And according to SFPD, "two male subjects suffering from injuries" were found at the scene, and were transported to a local hospital after receiving medical attention.

As Fox News reports;

The NFL player, 23, had been walking alone shortly after 3:30 p.m. local time when a suspect attempted to rob him with a gun in the Union Square area, according to officials. Scott said that more than one shot was fired.

The gun allegedly belonged to the suspect and was recovered. Scott said that investigators believe the teen had acted alone, adding that there was no indication that Pearsall had been targeted because he’s a football player.

According to Pearsall's mother, "GOD shielded him," and none of the bullets hit his vital organs.

"Update on my baby boy," she said in a Facebook post. "First and (foremost) I want to thank GOD for protecting my baby boy. He is extremely lucky, GOD shielded him. He was shot in the chest and it excited out his back. Thanks be to GOD it missed his vital organs.

"He is in good spirits right now," she added. "Life is so precious my friends. Please love (each other). My son was spared today by the grace of GOD. Please pray for my baby."
