LOUISVILLE, Ky.—Flashing a thumbs-up to his well-wishers, a police officer who was critically wounded while responding to a shooting at a Louisville bank in April was discharged from the hospital on Friday after enduring multiple surgeries and intensive therapy.
Louisville Metro Police Officer Nickolas Wilt still has a “long road” ahead in his recovery, but now he gets to sleep in his own bed and enjoy the steak dinner he requested, said his brother, Zack Wilt.
