In a Sunday Instagram post, the Die Hard star’s wife shared an update on Bruce’s wellbeing and how their family was celebrating his birthday.

A 44-year-old Orangeburg man was shot in the back at a Baxter Street home early Saturday, according to an incident report.

The man was shot after he went to answer the door at 4:30 a.m.

He told his girlfriend that he heard someone knocking at the front door and he went to answer it, thinking it was his stepson.

The girlfriend heard the man beating on her bedroom door and yelling that he’d been shot. The girlfriend opened her bedroom door and the man collapsed.

An ambulance transported him to MUSC-Orangeburg for treatment.

Deputies weren’t able to find any shell casings, but found a bullet hole in the front door.

The girlfriend believes the shooting may stem from a disagreement her son and his friends had with some other individuals, the report said.

If anyone has information about the shooting, they are asked to call Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC. Callers don’t have to give their names.
