Steelers' Mendenhall robbed at gunpoint

Rashard Mendenhall received a scare early Monday morning when he and a friend were robbed at gunpoint in Chicago, but the Steelers' first-round draft pick wasn't hurt and is doing well, his agent said. "He's glad he wasn't hurt; he's glad his friend wasn't hurt," said Mike McCartney, who represents Mendenhall. "He's fine, really."

According to McCartney, Mendenhall and a friend were robbed around 2 a.m. yesterday as they were walking along Chicago's South Side lakefront. Mendenhall, he added, gave the robbers -- who were wearing ski masks -- his wallet, cell phone and car keys. No shots were fired. Continue
