Miguel Castro who spent part of the 2015 season north of the border with the Blue Jays took to Instagram acknowledging that he was robbed of his jewelry and the assailants attempted to shoot him but the gun got jammed.
“They took my chains when I got there and they almost shot me,” he wrote in Spanish. “Thank God that their gun got jammed.”
Castro who is represented by the Ballengee Group also made a statement on their client’s behalf confirming that Castro is shaken but safe and he feels extremely blessed and fortunate to still be alive and thanks to everyone for their support.
