Overview
- The defensive lineman sustained a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to his ankle and is expected to recover, the team said.
- Officers responded at approximately 4:06 a.m. to a business on the 1700 block of Mission Street, where an argument between two groups preceded the gunfire from an unknown suspect.
- Investigators are following multiple leads and have gathered evidence that includes shell casings and surveillance footage, according to police reports.
- Local reporting says the incident occurred at Dahlia’s during a private event and alleges an earlier dispute involving rapper Lil Baby, a detail not confirmed by police and disputed by other accounts indicating White was a bystander.
- White had attended Super Bowl LX hours earlier; this is the second shooting involving a 49ers player in less than two years, following Ricky Pearsall’s 2024 injury.
