The California-born owner of a Pay Per Head business in Costa Rica identified only as Jason F. is expected to pull through according to sources close to Gambling911.com.
The individual was shot four times as he left an Escazu bakery near the La Paco shopping center Wednesday morning and attempted to get into his red Range Rover (pictured). Two men pulled up on motorcycles and fired the shots. Authorities are still investigating.
There is widespread speculation Friday that the attack could have been tied to the man’s real estate dealings and not his Pay Per Head business Easy Bet.
Authorities suspect the man to be a victim of a “bajonazo” (hold up at gunpoint), though they have not ruled out an attempted contract killing as witnesses claim to have seen men waiting in a car nearby at the time of the shooting.
Jason, who has resided in Costa Rica since 2004 and is 42 years of age, was upgraded to stable condition overnight Thursday but remained in ICU.
