Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Mike Timlin told fans he is “OK” after a mass shooting in Las Vegas that left scores dead and hundreds more injured.
Timlin says he was in the crowd at the country concert headlined by singer Jason Aldean where the shooting occurred, allegedly from a hotel room on the 32nd floor of the nearby Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.
Timlin shared a photo of himself with a group of people before the shooting, and followed up with a message reading, “All my group is ok.”
The pitcher, who played for the Red Sox from 2003-2008, also urged his followers to “please pray for all who have been wounded,” and tweeted the hashtag “#Godisalmighty.”
The number killed in the attack continued to rise Monday. Authorities say at least 58 died. The suspect has been identified as 64-year-old Stephen Craig Paddock, who is from Nevada and died of what police say was a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
