Officer describes hospitalization after prison response; credits colleagues and family
Summary
An officer recounted a Sept. 10 response to a prison incident and subsequent hospitalization with unusual neurological findings; he credited colleagues and family during an awards presentation.
During the awards portion of the meeting, an officer (speaker S3) described a Sept. 10 response to a correctional facility call and a later hospitalization that left him with memory and mood effects. He said doctors told him the affected part of his brain controlled memory and mood, and he expressed gratitude for rapid medical care and colleagues’ support.
"I've been in law enforcement for 33 years," the officer said, describing the episode and the unusual medical diagnosis he received afterward. He thanked his wife and colleagues who assisted during the episode, and specifically noted that Detective Lieutenant Scott Reed helped by transporting his wife to New Hanover for support during his hospitalization.
The account was presented as personal testimony during the awards segment; council members listened as the officer recounted recovery details. The meeting did not include further medical documentation or follow-up actions recorded in the provided transcript.
