CLEARCREEK TOWNSHIP — Clearcreek Township Police Officer Eric Ney has additional surgery on Monday.
Ney was shot by a man on July 12 when officers were investigating a domestic violence call. Ney was rushed to the hospital and was discharged less than two weeks later from a rehab facility.
About a week after that, his wife said Ney developed blood clots in the main arteries going to his lungs. That led doctors to put him back in the hospital a little over a week ago.
According to Clearcreek Township’s Police Chief John Terrill, Ney will undergo surgery today.
Terrill told us, “the procedure on last Monday’s surgery did not work. Ney continues to have air on his brain.”
News Center 7 will keep in contact with Chief Terrill to learn how officer Ney is doing after today’s surgery.
