quote:

BATON ROUGE - A police officer who was shot while trying to apprehend a murder suspect was sent home Thursday after spending almost two weeks in the hospital.

Cpl. Derrick Maglone was greeted with fanfare from police officers and medical staff as he walked out of Our Lady of the Lake Thursday afternoon. A motorcade of his fellow officers then escorted him back home.


Modern medicine is incredible. Early reports were that both had died, then Maglone was barely hanging on in the ICU, then less than two weeks later he is released and clearly recovering well.

Amazing.

I'm not 100% privvy to the details but I do believe it was more than just a graze wound. To my knowledge, part of his skull is still removed.

Cpl. Derrick Maglone represents the best of what it means to be a Baton Rouge Police Officer.

Despite losing his immediate boss, Lieutenant Glenn Hutto, and nearly dying on the table at the Our Lady of the Lake Hospital a week ago, Cpl. Derrick Maglone is already talking about getting back to his squad and continuing to serve the people of Baton Rouge.

There are hundreds just like Cpl. Derrick Maglone within the ranks of the Baton Rouge Police Department. In the future, if anyone wants to stereotype the mindset of all cops or the entire Baton Rouge Police Department, please remember Cpl. Derrick Maglone, the sacrifices he made, and the commitment he still has to serve the citizens of Baton Rouge.
