SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) Authorities in the Dominican Republic on Tuesday announced the arrest of an 11th suspect in the attempted killing of former Boston Red Sox star David Ortiz.
An official identified the suspect as Franklin Junior Meran. The official, who agreed to disclose the information only if not quoted by name because they weren’t authorized to discuss the case publicly, told The Associated Press that Meran is accused of renting one of the cars used in the June 9 shooting at a bar in Santo Domingo.
Ten other suspects have already been ordered to spend a year in preventive detention as the investigation continues.
Officials say they expect to release more details in the case Wednesday.
The newest arrest came as doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital upgraded Ortiz’s condition from ”guarded” to ”good.”
