(CNN) -- The San Diego Chargers' Steve Foley was shot Sunday by an off-duty policeman who had followed him to his home after noticing Foley's car driving erratically, a sheriff's investigator in San Diego, California, said.
The 30-year-old, nine-year NFL veteran was shot twice; his wounds are not believed to be life-threatening, said San Diego Sheriff's Department Lt. Dennis Brugos. The shooting came less than a week after the 6-foot, 4-inch, 265-pound linebacker was cleared on charges stemming from a scuffle with police in April. (Watch Brugos give the officer's version of events -- 3:02) The Coronado police officer, who was driving an unmarked car and was about 20 miles outside his jurisdiction, told investigators he started following Foley's car after he saw it about 10 miles north of San Diego on Interstate 15 northbound "weaving in lanes, traveling at speeds of between 30 and 90 mph and nearly colliding with several other vehicles on the highway."

Driving erratically --> followed home --> shot three times at home by a cop 20 miles outside his jrd --> something doesn't add up here.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200....ap/index.html Sheriff's investigators already have asked prosecutors to charge Foley with misdemeanor drunken driving. In the affidavit, Nordell wrote that Foley's blood-alcohol level was 0.233 percent, nearly three times California's legal driving limit of 0.08 percent, when he was shot Sept. 3 outside his home in suburban Poway. Foley, who is 6-foot-4, 265 pounds, was shot three times -- twice in the back of the left leg and once on the outside of the left thigh -- by an off-duty Coronado police officer. San Diego County sheriff's officials said the officer followed Foley's restored classic car on suspicion that the driver was drunk after spotting the car weaving and driving at speeds up to 90 mph. According to the sheriff's department, the officer, Aaron Mansker, followed the car for about 30 miles off the freeway. The shooting occurred after Foley got out of the car and began walking toward the officer, who said he was armed and fired a warning shot. The officer shot Foley after the linebacker reached into his pants with his right hand, according to sheriff's investigators.
