Deaderick was hospitalized Monday night after being shot in a robbery attempt in the parking lot of an apartment complex on Rice Mine Road in Tuscaloosa, police at the scene confirmed to the Press-Register. Deaderick was reportedly wounded in the arm and taken to the emergency area at DCH Hospital in Tuscaloosa for treatment around 10:30 p.m.

Hospital spokesperson Brad Fisher confirmed after midnight that Deaderick was being treated at the hospital and was in "good" condition. Fisher said Deaderick was admitted for the night into a regular room not in intensive care. He is expected to be released today.

Glad that he is okay. I hope that he heals and can get back to school and football. Lucky this wasn't worse.
