PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — On a typical day, Officer James Kuzak travels to UPMC Mercy for physical therapy as part of his long journey back from a near fatal shooting in April, but today is not typical.

“It’s been a rough day,” he said.

----------

“I think the stress is placed on every person in today’s world with the economics, with losses of jobs, everything,” Kuzak said. “The stress starts to get to people and I think it just carries over into a lot of their interactions with police.”

-----

“I think we’re just living in a more violent society these days,” he said. “When the police are under attack, who’s protecting the lawful people — the people who are trying to live a good life?”
