Pittsburgh police have issued an arrest warrant for a Toronto Argonauts player.
Linebacker Jeffrey Ali Knox Jr., 28, is facing several charges, including two counts of attempted homicide, two counts of aggravated assault and reckless endangerment of another person.
Cara Cruz, deputy public information officer for Pittsburgh Public Safety, says the charges stem from a shooting in the city on the night of Oct. 23.
The warrant was issued on Friday.
The Pittsburgh Public Safety media entry for the incident says two males were transported in stable but serious condition to area hospitals with gunshot wounds.
The Argos said Sunday that they are "well aware of the charges" and "take these matters seriously," but have not yet determined how to proceed.
"We are currently looking into it and determining the appropriate next steps for our organization," the statement said.
Knox, from Verona, Pa., has played parts of five seasons in the Canadian Football League with Saskatchewan, Toronto and Ottawa.
The CFL is not playing this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
