Officer Mitchell Anderson was released from the hospital Tuesday morning. A spokesman with the Rose Hill Police Department said it was not known when Anderson would be able to return to work.
A statewide manhunt, meanwhile, continues for the suspect in the officer's shooting, Tyrone David Williams. Williams is wanted for assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill/inflicting serious injury, assault with a gun on a law enforcement officer, possession of a firearm by a felon and felonious larceny.
Authorities say Williams is considered to be armed and extremely dangerous.
Williams is described as black, with dreadlocks, 6 feet tall, 220 pounds. He has a scar on his abdomen and walks with a limp.
