What happened to Deion Sanders' ‘brother’ Rasheen Bailey of HoodFishing Entertainment?
Rasheen Bailey, who Deion Sanders was worried about, was a victim of a shooting in Florida. The social media influencer was shot in Fort Mayers, his hometown. A pickup truck crashed into his red sedan along Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard in the town on Thursday afternoon after gunshots from a Ford Expedition hit oncoming traffic.
According to police reports, Bailey received multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to the hospital. Further, the vehicle of interest has been recovered by the authorities.
Bailey enjoys a big following on social media, with more than 756,000 followers on Instagram. He reportedly ran back after being shot and asked another passerby to call 911. An eye witness told the police that the 28-year-old was bleeding from the face, per NBC2 report.
“I saw a red car come crashing across the median and just slammed into this big silver truck, like a like a pickup truck. It was pretty shocking actually, to see it right in front of your eyes,” eye witness Janet Maiocco, who dialed emergency services, was quoted as saying by NBC2.
Hopefully, Bailey will recover soon and return to doing what he loves the most: fishing. Fans and Coach Prime wished him a speedy recovery. Investigation into the incident is still ongoing.
