THE ROAD TO RECOVERY FOR BERNALILLO COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPUTY ROBIN HOPKINS WILL BE LONG. SHE AND THREE APD OFFICERS WERE HIT BY A GUNFIRE FROM AN ASSAULT RIFLE FIRED BY 35 YEAR OLD CHRISTOPHER CHASE. HOPKINS … WHO'S 45 … IS IN THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT AND HAS UNDERGONE TWO SURGERIES.
SHE AND THE THREE APD OFFICERS WERE ALL HIT IN THEIR LOWER EXTREMITIES. THE OFFICERS WILL BE OKAY, EVEN THOUGH ONE IS STILL IN THE HOSPITAL. THEIR NAMES ARE NOT BEING RELEASED. HOPKINS WAS SHOT IN THE LEG AND IT'S UNKNOWN IF SHE'LL HAVE THE USE OF THAT LEG.
