Michigan State G Jeremy Fears Jr. out of hospital after shooting

Michigan State freshman guard Jeremy Fears Jr. was discharged from the hospital Sunday, one day after undergoing surgery for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, his father posted on social media.

Fears was involved in a shooting early Saturday morning in his hometown of Joliet, Ill.

The Joliet Police Department didn’t identify Fears, but confirmed officers responded to a shooting at 3:44 a.m. CT and that an 18-year-old male was shot and sustained a gunshot wound to his left thigh.

Spartans coach Tom Izzo said Fears underwent surgery.

“Jeremy underwent surgery (Saturday) morning and is resting comfortably,” Izzo said in a statement. “While there is much we still don’t know, my focus is on supporting Jeremy on his road to recovery.”

According to Joliet Police, the early-morning shooting also injured a 19-year-old female. She sustained a gunshot wound to her pelvis.

“A preliminary investigation of this shooting determined that both victims were inside the residence with others at which time it is believed that a male suspect armed with a handgun entered the residence through the front door and began firing inside the residence, striking both victims,” police said in a statement. “The suspect then ran from the residence. Both shooting victims were transported to Ascension St. Joseph Medical Center by the Joliet Fire Department in stable condition.”

Police said they were investigating a motive and the intended target of the shooting.

Fears is a four-star prospect who played at Joliet West High. He is averaging 3.5 points and 3.3 assists in 12 games for the Spartans.

Michigan State (7-5) next plays on Saturday at home against Indiana State.
