"To my knowledge, I don't believe Foley did have a weapon, even though I was told he reached into his waistband with his right hand," said San Diego County sheriff's Lt. Dennis Brugos.
Mansker has been placed on paid administrative leave, said Leah Corbin, a police spokeswoman in Coronado, a wealthy peninsular enclave across the bay from San Diego. She declined to release any other details about the officer.
There was no update Tuesday on Foley's condition. On Monday, his agent, David Levine, said Foley was hospitalized in stable condition. He is on the non-football injured reserve list, meaning he will miss the season and forfeit his pay, estimated at $1.65 million.
The sheriff's department said the shooting occurred after Foley, who is 6-foot-4, 265 pounds, got out of the vehicle near his home in Poway and began walking toward Mansker, who identified himself as an officer, said he was armed and fired a warning shot into the bushes.
Lisa Maree Gaut, a passenger in Foley's vehicle, got behind the wheel and drove toward the police officer, authorities said. Mansker fired two shots at the car and avoided getting struck. Gaut was unharmed."
Told ya the cop would face more charges than Foley or Gaut. He essentially empties his peashooter at Foley, shrubbery, the sky, and Foley's car, when he should have called for backup and merely followed him home. Lisa Maree remains behind bars, and there doesn't appear to be any truth to the rumor that Mansker was an old boyfriend who was stalking her.
