Yes you are correct. Still no wiser though

According to BJS twitter the lads been shot.

@bjsaunders_ he's in a serious enough state mate from what I heard

[jamiedavies02]

RUMOURS doing the rounds on Twitter that he has been shot. STRESS the word rumours. Hope these are false and if found to be true that he has a full and speedy recovery.

[Tarquin Tarpaulin IV]

Bad one I hear.

I imagine he is in a serious state indeed and is likely still in theatre if true.

Very bad could be the end of his career.

Probably more concerned with being alive at the minute pal.

Of course that aswell but i'm sure he'll pull through.

According to a poster on another forum, his injuries are not life-threatening.

Is there any news on Martin ward

[Tarquin Tarpaulin V]

Shot once in the shoulder. Not as bad as first thought but I don't know if that's been said from a boxing point of view or just the fact that it's not considered to be life threatening.
