Ravens running back Bernard Pierce is described as shaken but not injured after he was robbed at gunpoint and carjacked on Sunday in Philadelphia.

CBS 3 in Philadelphia reports that Pierce was robbed and had his BMW stolen. The car has since been recovered, and police have processed it to check for evidence.

According to the report, Pierce and a friend were in his car when two men came up in another car. One jumped out with a gun, robbed Pierce and his friend and forced them out of the BMW.

The Ravens told CBS 3 in a statement, “We have been in contact with Bernard and we are aware of the situation.”

Pierce grew up in the Philadelphia suburbs and played his college football in Philadelphia at Temple.

No arrests have been made and no suspects have been identified.
