The overwhelming lesson here?

Don’t try to kill David Ortiz.  He’s Dominican Baseball Royalty and the Dominican Republic doesn’t fuck around with Baseball Royalty.

League Of Justice: Luis Alfredo Rivas-Clase, one of the men accused of allegedly plotting to kill retired professional baseball legend David Ortiz, has been killed after being gunned down in broad daylight, according to police in the Dominican Republic.

Rivas-Clase was chased by several individuals in a vehicle through the north of Santiago, reports Dominican Republic’s largest Newspaper Listin Diario. His car tires went flat during the chase causing his car to crash. Rivas-Clase then tried to flee via foot but was shot in front of a shopping center. The suspects left the scene and have not yet been identified.

Authorities say they found twenty-seven bullet shells at the scene when they arrived. 
Col. Antonio Calvo Perez says Rivas-Clase was wanted in connection with various crimes allegedly committed this year.

More notably, he was connected to the June 2019, shooting of former Red Sox player David Ortiz in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

Luis Clase fucked around and found out.

They’ll never find the suspects in the shooting because Dominican cops don’t care.  This is Dominican street justice at its finest.

David Ortiz isn’t just a popular baseball player, he’s the patron saint of baseball and the Dominican people LOVE him.  He’s given more to the country than any Dominican baseball player before or after him.  He’s revered to the point where complete strangers decided to kill the man who tried to kill Ortiz because Ortiz is that important to the Dominican people.

It’s street justice as much as it’s a warning to anyone who wants to fuck with Big Papi.

Don’t.
