"We all believe that through prayer and advanced medical procedures, Dan will be able to walk on his own someday," Adsit Strong said in a statement Thursday. "However, in the meantime, the inability to walk is inhibiting his ability to enjoy normal activities and hobbies ... This amazing hero loves hunting, fishing, and enjoying the outdoors with his family and friends."
The charity has teamed up with fellow law enforcement non-profits MC-1 Foundation and Shield 616 to raise money to outfit Brite with an Action TrackChair.
