Camacho wounded, expected to survive
• Former champion boxer Hector “Macho” Camacho was seriously wounded Tuesday in a shooting outside San Juan, Puerto Rico, and doctors and his spokesman said he was expected to survive. At least one gunman opened fire on the 50-year-old Camacho and another man as they sat in a car in the city of Bayamon. The other man, whose relationship to the former boxer wasn’t immediately known, was killed, according to a statement from police. He was rushed to Centro Medico, the trauma center in San Juan, where he was in critical but stable condition.
• Coach Jeff Tedford was fired after 11 seasons at California that began with great promise and ended with a disappointing run of mediocrity. Tedford engineered an impressive turnaround for the Golden Bears after taking over a one-win team following the 2001 season. He won a school-record 82 games.
