Utah sophomore tight end Ben Allison was recovering Saturday after being shot in the chest at a family wedding.

Allison was being treated for a wound on the right side of his chest at LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City, where he had been upgraded from serious to fair condition, hospital spokesman Jess Gomez said.

Police said the shooting, which occurred early Saturday morning at a family wedding in West Jordan, Utah, may be gang-related, and it appears that Allison and another man shot in the leg were innocent bystanders.
