A former North Texas high school baseball player is recovering in intensive care after being shot during a college baseball game in Texarkana on Saturday.
Matthew DeLaney, who played at Princeton High School and is now a player for Texas A&M-Texarkana, was struck in the chest by a stray bullet during the fifth inning of the university’s final homestand of the season.
DeLaney, per the Texarkana Police Department, was standing near a bullpen and batting cages at the southwest corner of George Dobson Field when he was hit.
He was taken to an area hospital, where he remains as of Monday.
The game was stopped while detectives and police scoured the field for possible evidence.
Investigators said Sunday that the stray bullet was fired roughly 400 yards away in a neighborhood just west of the stadium during a gunfight between two people.
Demarco Banks, 20, turned himself in and has been charged with deadly conduct in connection to the shooting. A 17-year-old named Kamauri Butler is still at large and wanted for aggravated assault.
