Starlin Castro Cleared of Any Wrongdoing in DR Shooting

[CaliforniaRaisin]

@Enrique_Rojas1: #Cubs SS Starlin Castro arrested Saturday by authorities for questioning by a shooting that left 6 injured by bullets, police said.

 

@Enrique_Rojas1: El vocero de la policía dominicana @Jacobommoquete informó que personas muy cercanas a Castro están involucradas en balacera.

 

Second tweet says he's being questioned because people close to him were involved in the shooting.

 

This is an independent incident, different from the shooting last month.

Losing Cutler and Castro in short order just might destroy me.

Geez.

[treebird]

oh my god is the starlin mspaint going to be depressing

[UMFan83]

JFC, what kind of circles is he in at home?

 

Really really hope he's not directly involved.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Shoulda traded him to the Mets when we had the chance.

Got dang it Starlin, I don't think going the whole off season without the police considering you a person of interest is that high a bar to reach.

[Guest]

Translation error I hope? Why would they arrest him just because he was there and his friends were involved? That makes him a witness, why arrest a witness?

[UMFan83]

I'm sure I wasn't the only one that thought this was the same thread from last month at first.

 

Can we ban players like Castro and Strop from going home in the offseason?

Sounds like his bodyguard did the shooting, according to translations, as of now.

[bhogg]

Well the silver lining is clearly Starlin's and / or his bodyguards' terrible shooting skills

[UMFan83]

Castro's Instagram an hour ago I think? Not sure what it says

So he's only an accessory to attempted murder. Great.

Thank God for the opportunity and for keeping my head high despite the dema and ill

 

Can't figure out what dema might be. Maybe drama?

An assistant to the mayor was involved? Hopefully he's on Starlin's side of things.

Was last year the alleged rape? Either he's acting like a fool at home or has a huge bullseye on him because of his money. Maybe both. Either way somebody needs to convince him to stop going home or we need to trade him.

[Cubswin11]

Didn't the alleged rape happen in Chicago?

[Smack]

Didn't the alleged rape happen in Chicago?

 

You're right, my bad. Two shootings in one offseason is enough.

[Janelle-Alexis]

Was last year the alleged rape?

 

That was the year before. Last year was his bank accounts being frozen in some weird lawsuit.

[UMFan83]

So is there any chance Castro goes to jail for this or do we need more details to speculate?

[RammyFanny]

The wording was changed from arrested to detained and there was like 9 people brought in for questioning fwiw.
