Auburn running back Brian Battie was injured in a shooting on Saturday morning, a school spokesperson confirmed to Rivals' Brian Stultz.
"We are aware of the situation and are continuing to gather information," the spokesperson said.
According to the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office (h/t ABC 7), Battie's brother, Tommie L. Battie IV, was pronounced dead at the scene of the shooting.
The incident occurred around 3:30 a.m. Saturday in Battie's hometown of Sarasota, Florida, and sent four victims, including Battie, to the hospital.
Battie, a junior, transferred to Auburn from South Florida ahead of the 2023 season and was primarily a kick returner, recording 645 yards on 29 attempts last year and finishing fifth in the SEC in kick return average.
