The 17-year-old suspect in the shooting of rookie Ricky Pearsall has been charged with attempted murder and assault with a semi-automatic firearm.
San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins stated the charges will be filed in juvenile court, with a potential transfer to adult court pending evaluation.
The District Attorney noted that the case being handled in juvenile court means the defendant will stay in juvenile custody, not county jail.
Ricky Pearsall is recovering well, according to 49ers general manager John Lynch, who provided updates on the player's condition following the incident.
