A local internet star injured during a shooting in broad daylight on a Fort Myers street is still recovering from what happened.

Rasheen Bailey, who goes by “Hood Fishing” on social media platforms Instagram and TikTok, competes in fishing tournaments all over the country.

As of noon on Monday, he’s in stable condition after he was shot multiple times in Fort Myers near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Michigan Avenue on Thursday.
