Brewers show support for 8-year-old fan paralyzed in Highland Park shooting:
Craig Counsell discusses 8-year-old Cooper Roberts, injured in the Highland Park shooting
says Cooper is paralyzed from the waist down and has been fully sedated and on a ventilator as of Thursday, Loizzi said. Luke Roberts was struck by shrapnel and has returned home from the hospital, Loizzi said. But some of the shards remain in his body because it would have been too dangerous to remove them.
Throughout this weekend's series against the Pittsburgh Pirates at American Family Field, a jersey will hang in the Brewers dugout with the name"Roberts" affixed to it. Manager Craig Counsell said it was important to support Cooper as he battles on. The Brewers are also giving Cooper and Luke each an authentic City Connect jersey signed by the team and a video message has been recorded to be shared with Roberts and his family, a Brewers spokesperson told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
