2016 Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez says he was shot recently. He tweeted, "Thanks to everyone that’s checked up on me since I was shot. I love y’all too." The Salina Post inferred, but did not explicitly state that Hernandez was a victim of his own foolishness. Without naming Hernandez, the Salina Post reported that a 24 year-old male resident of Wichita, Kansas suffered a gunshot wound to his right leg when he allowed a friend to check out his gun. The Salina Post information was gleaned from a police report that did not release the victim's name but Hernandez is a a 24 year-old male resident of Wichita, Kansas who says he got shot. As a pro, Hernandez is 7-0 but has had trouble getting fights, so he recently took, and won, a bare knuckles fight.
