Fresno County Correctional Officer shot last year at jail showing progress in recovery

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Some encouraging news in the recovery of Fresno County Correctional Officer Toamalama Scanlan after his family posted video of him during rehab in Houston which shows him making progress in his recovery.

Officer Scanlan's daughter said he receives therapy each day from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. with some breaks in between.

Video shows one of his music therapy sessions which helps him fine-tune his hearing and sight.
