Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor is in critical condition after being shot in his Miami home early Monday morning. Apparently Taylor was shot in the leg, but details are still sketchy at this point.

Richard Sharpstein, an attorney who represented Taylor in a criminal case, said the player’s father told him his son had been shot in the leg and was bleeding heavily because his femoral artery was severed.

Investigators were still interviewing the girlfriend and other relatives who were in the home to try to determine what happened, Perez said.

“It could have been a possible burglary; it could have been a possible robbery,” Perez said. “It has not been confirmed as yet.”

I’ll update this blog as more information is released.
