Investigators say that the suspects who shot Boston Red Sox’s David Ortiz in the Dominican Republic over the weekend were paid roughly $7,800 U.S. dollars for the hit. Six people are currently in custody and one suspect still remains at large in Sunday’s shooting. Ortiz was shot in the stomach while at a nightclub. Ortiz is recovering from exploratory surgery and is expected to recover. No motive is known for the shooting. Why do you think Ortiz was the target of an alleged hit?
