Baylor mourns death of freshman lineman after he was shot in Mississippi
Baylor's football program mourned the loss Wednesday of Alex Foster, an 18-year-old defensive lineman who was set for his freshman season after taking a redshirt last year. According to multiple reports, Foster was killed by gunfire in his hometown of Greenville, Mississippi.
Greenville police officers were called to the scene of a shooting just after midnight on Tuesday night, and discovered a man in a car who was suffering from gunshot wounds, a police spokesperson told the Associated Press. The man was said to have been transported to a hospital, where he died shortly thereafter. A local coroner's office confirmed to the AP and to the Mississippi Clarion Ledger that the man in question was Foster.
