The alleged coordinator of Sunday night\'s attack on David Ortiz was offered 400,000 Dominican pesos, or about $7,800, to carry out the shooting, according to police.
Six suspects, including the alleged gunman, have been detained in the Dominican Republic.
Ortiz\'s wife said in a statement Wednesday that the former Red Sox slugger was able to sit up and take some steps as he recuperates in the intensive care unit at Massachusetts General Hospital.
