SHAKER HEIGHTS, Ohio, Feb. 26 (UPI) -- Greg Pruitt Jr., the son of Greg Pruitt, a former running back with the Cleveland Browns and Los Angeles Raiders, was shot and critically wounded this week.

The shooting occurred in a house in Shaker Heights, a Cleveland suburb, on Sunday night, The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported. Police said that no one had been charged and the shooting remains under investigation.

Pruitt remained in the surgical intensive care unit at Huron Hospital after an operation Monday morning, WEWS-TV reported.

The younger Pruitt was a star at Shaker Heights High School and North Carolina Central University. In 2007, he signed a rookie free agent contract with the Baltimore Ravens.

The elder Pruitt went to the Pro Bowl four times while he was with the Browns and once after he joined the Raiders.
