According to an incident report, Miles told a Richland County Sheriff's deputy he was driving his car when he was shot. He did not know who shot him, the report stated. He did say the person who shot him was a white man in his late 30s or early 40s and was wearing a long sleeve work shirt and khaki pants.



Lott said his department's investigation along with some sort of confession from Miles later proved the robbery angle to be false.



South Carolina team physician Dr. Jeffrey Guy said Miles sustained a soft tissue injury. Miles has been released from the hospital, but is still under doctor's care.



Miles played in all 13 Gamecock football games in 2012. The tailback was third on the team with 359 rushing yards on 104 carries.



As a redshirt freshman in 2009, Miles led the team in rushing with 117 carries for 626 yards.



For his career, he rushed for 1,341 yards on 315 carries, including four 100-yard rushing games. Two of his five touchdowns came in the 2011 Capital One Bowl win over Nebraska.
