Pearsall was said to have been shot in the chest. He is said to be in serious but stable condition. The suspect is said to be in custody.

Pearsall, a wide receiver like Samuel, is entering his rookie season for the 49ers. He was a first-round pick but has missed time in training camp due to a shoulder injury. The Niners have the weekend off before their season-opening game next Monday night at home.
