Former Atlanta Braves All-Star Dale Murphy took to Twitter on Sunday night to say that his son had been shot in the eye with a rubber bullet while he was « peacefully protesting for justice for George Floyd » in Denver.
Murphy, who played 15 seasons in Atlanta, did not identify which of his seven sons was injured. Fox News identified him as Tyson.
« His story is not unique, » Murphy wrote. « Countless others have also experienced this use of excessive police force while trying to have their voices heard. »
Murphy posted a photo of his son’s injury and credited one stranger for handing out goggles to protesters and another for driving his son to the emergency room.
