Seriously injured, at this point, I hope he lives through this. Of course, I would hope and pray for his full recovery. Per further in the article, hit twice in the abdomen, so that’s not the head but this still sounds very serious.

Some reports don’t sound good at all, so there really is a reason to hope he survives.
