Prosecutor: Man held in shooting of fan after Cardinals game
ST. LOUIS -- Prosecutors say a man is being held in connection to a shooting and robbery after a St. Louis Cardinals game that may have left an Army veteran paralyzed.
Susan Ryan of the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's office said Wednesday that the person of interest is being held on an unrelated charge in St. Louis County while police investigate the shooting.
Forty-three-year-old Christopher Sanna and his girlfriend had just left the Cardinals baseball game Friday night and were in a parking lot a few blocks from Busch Stadium when two men demanded the couple's belongings, according to police.
The woman gave up her purse and the couple turned to run when one of the gunmen shot Sanna in the back, police said.
The bullet went through Chris' liver, spine, and lungs, reports CBS affiliate KMOV. He was taken to the hospital and was listed in stable condition.
