NYPD officer badly hurt in deadly Coney Island fire leaves hospital
A police officer who was severely injured while responding to a Brooklyn fire has left the hospital.
Officer Rosa Rodriguez rolled into the sunshine in a wheelchair but in uniform on Monday from Weill Cornell Medical Center.
The beaming mother of four was greeted by wild cheers from fellow officers and the sound of bagpipes.
She spent almost six weeks at the Manhattan hospital, including the first four days in a coma.
