Lawyer shot by Cheney to leave hospital
The lawyer shot by US Vice President Dick Cheney during a hunting trip was discharged from a hospital in Corpus Christi, Texas, today and told reporters he was sorry for all the trouble Cheney had faced over the past week.
“We all assume certain risks in what we do, in what activities we pursue,” Whittington, 78, said as he stood outside the hospital with what appeared to be scars on an eyelid and scrapes on his neck.
