LOUISVILLE, Ky. (LEX 18) — A police officer seriously hurt in last week's mass shooting in Louisville has been transferred to a different hospital.
Officer Nick Wilt is in critical but stable condition after he suffered a gunshot wound to the head during the shooting at Old National Bank which left five victims dead.
The Louisville Metro Police Foundation said on Tuesday that Wilt was diagnosed with pneumonia. In a social post Thursday, the foundation says Officer Wilt was moved to U of L Jewish Hospital so a specialist can treat the pneumonia.
Officer Wilt's twin brother says pneumonia is a common complication for people on ventilators and that doctors are working to treat it now.
