Knox County Deputy Dalton Swanger was critically injured responding to a call in June—struck in the head while searching for a suspect in a dark wooded area. His injury was captured live on “On Patrol: Live.”

After days in the hospital and a medically induced coma, Deputy Swanger has shared his first public statement. He thanks the medical teams, fellow deputies, family, and the countless supporters who sent prayers, letters, and organized fundraisers.

“Your prayers carried me through some of the darkest moments of my life,” he wrote.

His resolve remains unshaken. He vows to return to duty stronger and ready.
