Mark Mulder Criticizes San Francisco After Shooting

Former MLB pitcher Mark Mulder criticized San Francisco as an 'absolute hell hole' following the shooting of 49ers rookie Ricky Pearsall during a robbery attempt. Pearsall was shot in the chest while being targeted for his Rolex in the Union Square area, but the bullet passed through without hitting vital organs, and he was released from the hospital the next day. The suspect, a 17-year-old male, was arrested after a struggle ensued between him and Pearsall. Mulder's comments come amidst growing criticisms of the city's safety, reflecting a broader sentiment among some athletes regarding crime in San Francisco. The shooting incident has sparked discussions about public safety and accountability in the city, with city officials emphasizing that such violence will not be tolerated.
