Deuel County Deputy Sheriff Mike Hutchinson was ambushed and shot four times at close range while serving an arrest warrant in Big Springs on Dec. 3. He is alive today because of a series of extraordinary coincidences, good fortune, and the heroic efforts of others.

I know many Freepers were following this story and praying for Deputy Hutchinson's recovery. This is the whole story of how he was shot and the aftermath and recovery.

Maximum hatred of these headlines ... so misleading. I’m glad that the officer is in full recovery, but to imply that this just happened is just scandalous.

This says it all:

Hutchinson’s sister, Tracie Guffey of Blue Springs, Missouri, said rural communities stand tall in the way they rally around their own.
“It says a lot about small towns,” she said, “and it says a lot about the person.”

Yes, you do have to wonder what’s happened in our large cities. The small towns havn’t forgotten what America is all about, but the large cities are cesspools of morons and low-lifes who place little value on either human life or family values.
God Bless Big Spring, TX

I hadn’t heard about this. What he’s going through is really rough, and he might never fully recover to his pre-injury status, but what a wonderful thing he’s alive, and his family/friends can still love him, and he still has opportunity to do some wonderful things in his life.

This was a really good article and it outlined so clearly, humanly, the story, fear, pain and suffering, as well as the recovery and struggles which go along with his ordeal, as well as the gratitude to God, and for life.

Thankyou for sharing it with us.

Livid hatred of the police and well-known. Should have been locked up before this happened. I have a solution for his wife too, for warning him.

You’re welcome! These kinds of stories are a welcome respite from all the bad news we hear on a daily basis.
