She says she is grateful for the support from the community as she continues to recover from her injuries.
****Update on Condition:

“I am blown away by your support! Thank you for your prayers and well wishes. My phone has not stopped ringing with concerned citizens and other law enforcement agencies wanting to help.”
This is the best possible outcome! My thank you to God first, the outstanding first responder and medics who work our ambulances.
We have an amazing group of people supporting our county.
Sheriff Knox
