JOHANNESBURG -- Oscar Pistorius was treated for minor wrist injuries at a hospital and has been returned to a South African jail where the Olympian is serving a six-year sentence for killing girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, prison officials said Sunday.The report of injuries to Pistorius, who denied he had attempted suicide, came as athletes began competition at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. Pistorius and his coach said before Steenkamps 2013 killing that they wanted to retire together at the Rio games.Pistorius told officials that he suffered the injuries after falling out of bed, said Singabakho Nxumalo, a spokesman for South Africas correctional services department.The former track star was initially treated by medical staff at the Kgosi Mampuru II prison in Pretoria, and then transferred to Kalafong hospital, said Manelisi Wolela, another official at the department. Pistorius was returned to his cell on Saturday, and an investigation is underway.Oscar Pistorius denied speculations of a suicide attempt, Wolela said in a text message to media.As a policy principle, we cannot further discuss a particular offenders personal condition in the public domain, he said.Pistorius family declined to comment, referring inquiries to the correctional services department.Pistorius has been held in a single cell in the hospital wing of the prison, reducing his interaction with other inmates.During Pistorius sentencing hearing in June, a psychologist testified for the defense that the athlete was a broken man whose mental state had deteriorated over the last two years, and that he should be hospitalized and not jailed. Prosecutors have challenged such assessments, saying Pistorius has an aggressive streak and may have played up vulnerabilities in an attempt to win leniency from the judge presiding over his case.Commenting on the decision to send Pistorius to a hospital, Nxumalo referred to past reports of tension between the convicted murderer and a prison nurse who testified about alleged confrontations over medication and other issues while the runner was serving an earlier manslaughter sentence. Pistorius defense team suggested those reports were exaggerated.Last month, South African prosecutors said they would appeal Pistorius jail sentence, saying it was too lenient. The double-amputee athlete, who was sentenced on July 6, could be released on parole after three years. The prescribed minimum sentence for murder in South Africa is 15 years, though a judge can reduce that penalty in some circumstances.Pistorius also previously served one year in prison for manslaughter for shooting Steenkamp, a 29-year-old model and reality TV star. That manslaughter conviction was upgraded to the more serious offense of murder after a prosecution appeal, leading to a new sentencing.Pistorius shot Steenkamp multiple times through a toilet cubicle door in his home in the predawn hours of Valentines Day, 2013. Pistorius testified that he killed Steenkamp by mistake, thinking there was an intruder hiding in the bathroom. Prosecutors said he shot her intentionally after an argument.Pistorius, known as Blade Runner for his carbon-fiber running blades, gained worldwide fame when he ran against able-bodied athletes at the 2012 London Olympics, the first amputee runner to compete at the Games.Pistorius was born without fibulas, the slender bones that run from below the knee to the ankle. His lower legs were amputated when he was 11 months old. Clayton Thorson Eagles Jersey . Bjorn, who had a 36-hole total of 8-under 134, made a testing six-foot putt to save par on the 16th and a birdie on the 17th before bogeying the final hole after a misjudged approach shot. American Kevin Streelman was in second place after shooting a 69. Clayton Thorson Jersey . Siddikur, whose previous win on the circuit came in Brunei three years ago, finished his bogey-free round with a birdie on the 18th for a total of 17-under 199. Indias Shiv Chowrasia, who has finished runner-up in this tournament twice, was in second place after a 66. http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/Eagles-Clayton-Thorson-Jersey/ . Coach Tom Thibodeau says the former MVP will probably start travelling with the team in the next few weeks. Rose tore the meniscus in his right knee at Portland in November and was ruled out for the remainder of the season by the Bulls. Andre Dillard Eagles Jersey . It just didnt show when he hit the ice. Berra made 42 saves and Kris Russell scored at 1:32 of overtime, lifting the Calgary Flames to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday night. Nick Foles Jersey . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and San Francisco 49ers both will be missing their top running backs when they face off in Santa Clara, Calif., on Sunday (4:05 p.m. ET, FOX), but that might not matter much considering how poorly both teams are playing against the run.The 49ers, fresh off yielding 312 rushing yards in a blowout loss at Buffalo, are giving up a league-worst 174.3 yards per game on the ground, and the Buccaneers are surrendering 103.8.So, even with Tampa Bay still missing Doug Martin (hamstring) and San Francisco going without Carlos Hyde (ankle), both offenses have a chance to move the ball on the ground Sunday.Without three top defensive linemen, the Bucs (2-3) gave up 136 yards and two touchdowns to Carolinas backup running backs last week. Defensive tackle Gerald McCoy, who missed the 17-14 win over the Panthers due to a calf strain, returned to practice Wednesday on a limited basis and could be available. However, defensive end Robert Ayers (high ankle sprain) and tackle Clinton McDonald (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday and appear unlikely for Sunday.That could open the door for a big game by Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers on the ground. In his first start of the season last week, a 45-16 loss at Buffalo, Kaepernick led the 49ers (1-5) with 66 rushing yards on eight attempts.The 49ers will hope for more out of Mike Davis (13 yards on five runs) and Shaun Draughn (one carry for two yards) as well. Davis was stopped on a key fourth-and-1 play after Hyde was sidelined.Draughn has done this before: He rushed for more than 50 yards three times and scored one touchdown after replacing an injured Hyde as the starter in Week 8 last season.Youll see both those guys, San Francisco coach Chip Kelly said, adding the 49ers will rotate all of their backs with Hyde ruled out Friday.The Bucs are in the same spot. With Martin experiencing a setback in his recovery from a hamstring strain, Jacquizz Rodgers will get the call again. The 5-foot-6 tailback is coming off a 101-yard game in Tampa Bays win over Carolina.Kelly is very familiar with Rodgeers, a former Oregon State star who played against Kellys Oregon team in the Pac-12.ddddddddddddYeah, he was just an unbelievable player in college and very, very difficult to defend, Kelly said. I think he doesnt get enough credit for how physical he is just because hes not the biggest back in the world, so you automatically think that hes a nifty, nimble, make-you-miss type of guy. He can do that, but hes also a very physical runner, very sturdy, has great balance, great vision.Hes a handful, and we have to be very aware of him in their run game because really the run game sets up everything else up for them.Rodgers wont be the only skill player filling a void for the Bucs, who this week placed top receiver Vincent Jackson on injured reserve with an ACL injury. Donteea Dye and Adam Humphries will be counted on to make up for Jacksons absence -- filling in behind Mike Evans, who caught six passes for 89 yards and a score against the Panthers.Every time with these injuries, guys just keep stepping up, Tampa Bay quarterback Jameis Winston said. We really depend on these guys, and we lean on them.Obviously, Donteea is going to have to step up. This is the moment hes been waiting for. He had a couple of big catches in the game when Vincent got hurt (in 2015), so we trust those guys and were depending on them. And they know that.Bucs coach Dirk Koetter said, Any time you lose a player and team leader of Vincents caliber, it is a setback for your team. Vincent is a very tough-minded player and a great competitor. Even though he doesnt recall when he injured his knee, he was still out there the entire game and made two crucial catches on our final drive to set up the game-winning field goal.I know that being placed on injured reserve is difficult for him, but I also know he will maintain a strong presence in our locker room and will help our younger guys prepare and develop because thats the type of team-first leader he is.
